Reviews

From the reviews: “I enjoyed the book: as an immunologist who has spent 10 years working on RSV there were a number of novel insights and it was nice to see it all in one place. … I will be recommending it to PhD students and Postdocs starting out on RSV research … . also recommend it to people who have been working with RSV for a while to dip in and out of to fill any gaps in the general knowledge.” (John Tregoning, Immunology News, May, 2014)
