Overview
Written by a US professor of Medicine, this book explores in detail neuronal and non-neuronal loci of viral infection as well as paths, transport mechanisms and spread within the brain and body. A pseudo quantal hypothesis is proposed, according to which progress of the disease is in part determined by the involvement of the nervous system.

COVID-19 may enter your body not only from the mouth, nose and eyes but several other points. This book lists the possible entry sites and follows the paths the virus may take to organs and brain centers. J.G. Great detail .... for the non-medical reader to plan a thorough prevention plan. Ben.H. A must for practicing physicians .... K.W. The author is an anatomist neurophysiologist so he gives a detailed picture of how coronavirus can enter your body, how it can travel through your body, what body structures it may infect and the consequent functional changes it may effect. Emphasis is given to lung desease, which is deadly. Physicians and researchers will find this book useful. Non medical readers will be surprised to read that the prevention advice they received from WHO and CDC leaves out a lot! A one-of-a-kind book. Albric, Goodreads review, 5 stars. .
