Synopsis:

Now in its third edition, this undergraduate textbook has been completely revised with additional and completely rewritten chapters. The book covers virology from its inception to the latest developments in the subject which have flourished through the employment of recombinant DNA and monoclonal antibody technologies. Emphasis is placed on the fundamental aspects of virology from replication to the developing understanding of virus disease processes at the molecular level.

Review: "Dimmock and Primrose occupies a justified niche ... and certainly provides an easy access to virology for the undergraduate or beginning postgraduate ... That this is the fourth edition must attest to the popularity of the authors′ approach over the 20 years since the first edition was published." (Trends in Microbiology, 1995 on the fourth edition)

The eminent readability of the text, coupled with the useful provision of references to the recent literature, should encourage the reader to investigate further and thereby gain a fuller picture of the present and future directions of virology." (Society for General Microbiology Quarterly, 1995, on the fourth edition)
