Neurovirology: Viruses and the Brain (Advances in Virus Research, Volume 56) (Advances in Virus Research)

This volume is the first in a planned series of thematic volumes for Advances in Virus Research . It covers the etiology, pathogenetic mechanisms, and clincial consequences of human neurotropic viruses. Buchmeier is a virologist, Campbell an immunologist, and both are extremely well known in their fields. Numerous illustrations including colour Knowledgeable discussion of the potential role of viral infections in teratogenic and developmental disorders. Frank discussion of the role of stress in disease Behavioural consequences of chronic CNS infection Content: Editorial Board Page iv Preface Page xi Iain L. Campbell, Michael J.
