This book offers a guide to virology which provides information on viruses from an engineer's and applied scientist's perspective. Concise and easy to use, this guide brings together a wealth of general information on viruses in one compact book. It additionally offers practical and technical information plus calculation details. The guide has been written not only for students but also for those in technical roles, such as engineers and applied scientists who work in public health, pharmaceuticals, or other health‐related fields. It is a tool that may be used whenever and wherever information about viruses is likely to be sought. In the wake of the COVID‐19 pandemic, it has become evident that knowledge of virology is no longer critical only to doctors or epidemiologists there is an urgent need for cooperation among varied disciplines to address the current pandemic and prepare for the next one. The authors feel that no one source currently covers all of the information on viruses in the manner presented in this book. It is hoped that this book will serve to fill the growing need for concise and digestible information – both academically and professionally – in these fields.
The guide is divided into three parts. Part I provides an overview of the science of viruses, including what they are, how they work, and how illnesses can be prevented and treated. Parts II and III provide information on practical/technical considerations and on calculation details, respectively. In addition, a number of illustrative examples are included for each chapter
