This volume is the first in a planned series of thematic volumes for Advances in Virus Research. It covers the etiology, pathogenetic mechanisms, and clincial consequences of human neurotropic viruses. Buchmeier is a virologist, Campbell an immunologist, and both are extremely well known in their fields. - Numerous illustrations including colour - Knowledgeable discussion of the potential role of viral infections in teratogenic and developmental disorders - Frank discussion of the role of stress in disease - Behavioural consequences of chronic CNS infection
