Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych (dostawa przed świętami) Although there are a number of excellent current reviews on one or another aspect of cytomegalovirus, the last comprehensive treatment of this subject was that of Krech et al.

ISBN: 9780412612206 / Angielski / Twarda / 356 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych (dostawa przed świętami) Only in recent years has it been revealed that V. cholerae is a normal inhabitant of esturine and riverine waters.

It is likely that the environment is the source of epidemic strains. This is the first book to focus on the implication of these discoveries.

ISBN: 9780896032217 / Angielski / Twarda / 455 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych (dostawa przed świętami) The Epstein-Barr virus (EBV), isolated in 1966, continues to draw worldwide attention as an important human pathogen. Its impor tance is largely related to the continuing accumulation of evidence that implicates EBV as an etiological factor for certain types of human cancer. More recent investigations on this virus have focused on the identity of the viral genes responsible for the different disease mani festations observed following viral infection. It is hoped that by thorough investigation of this virus, clues to how cancer develops from a normal cell will surface. In addition, many of the...

Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych (dostawa przed świętami) Drawing from sermons, novels, newspaper editorials, poetry, medical texts, and the writings of social activists, Cholera and Nation explores how the coming of the cholera epidemics during a period of intense political reform in Britain set the terms by which the social body would be defined. In part by historical accident, epidemic disease and especially cholera became foundational to the understanding of the social body. As the healthy body was closely tied to a particular vision of nation and modernity, the unhealthy body was proportionately racialized and othered. In turn, epidemic disease...
