Description
Interweaving theory with the dramas of trial and error, Henig provides clear explanations of what viruses are; how they are transported; under what conditions they thrive; how they inflict damage by invading the nucleus of the cell, commandeering the cell's reproductive machinery and destroying its ability to function normally; and how scientists are trying to protect us from them.
