Filoviridae the Marburgviruses And Ebolaviruses

The marburgviruses and ebolaviruses are among the most hazardous pathogens known to mankind. Since these agents are highly virulent, research progress has been rather slow in comparison to other viruses. After it was revealed that the former Soviet Union has evaluated filoviruses for biological weapons development interest in defenses against them has been reawakened. This book provides the most extensive bibliography review of filovirus research publication to date with special emphasis on foreign literature that has never been summarized. Every aspect of filovirus research, including their history, epidemiology, clinical picture, pathology, molecular biology, and political aspects are reviewed in detail.Kuhn, Jens H. is the author of 'Filoviridae the Marburgviruses And Ebolaviruses', published 2005 under ISBN 9783211206713 and ISBN 321120671X.
