商品描述

Leeuwenhoek's Legatees and Beijerinck's Beneficiaries: A History of Medical Virology in The Netherlands offers a tour of the history of Dutch medical virology. Beginning with the discovery of the first virus by Martinus Beijerinck in 1898, the authors investigate the reception and redefinition of his concept in medical circles and its implications for medical practice. The relatively slow progress of these areas in the first half of the twentieth century and their explosive growth in the wake of molecular techniques are examined. The surveillance and control of virus diseases in the field of public health is treated in depth, as are tumour virus research and the important Dutch contributions to technical developments instrumental in advancing virology worldwide. Particular attention is paid to oft forgotten virus research in the former Dutch colonies in the East and West Indies and Africa.

《李文虎的遺產與貝耶林克的受益者:荷蘭醫學病毒學的歷史》提供了荷蘭醫學病毒學歷史的巡禮。從馬丁努斯·貝耶林克(Martinus Beijerinck)於1898年發現第一個病毒開始,作者探討了他在醫學界的概念如何被接受和重新定義,以及這對醫學實踐的影響。書中檢視了二十世紀上半葉這些領域相對緩慢的進展,以及隨著分子技術的興起而出現的爆炸性增長。公共衛生領域中病毒疾病的監測與控制被深入探討,腫瘤病毒研究以及荷蘭在推進全球病毒學方面的重要技術貢獻也得到了重視。特別關注的是在前荷蘭殖民地(東印度和西印度及非洲)中常被遺忘的病毒研究。
