Focuses on the mechanisms that viruses use to survive and cause disease in their hosts. Covering human, animal, plant and bacterial viruses, this work provides the basic foundations for the evolutionary dynamics of viruses and examples of diseases explained by the evolutionary flexibility of the viral agents.
