The Poetry of Life
This memoir details the ups and downs of a life in science, as well as the pleasures of life in Europe, Japan, and Africa. Alfred Prince describes the importance of his many friends in contributing to his education, successes in research, and pleasure in life. He also describes the enemies who made life difficult. A major portion of the book concentrates on the nature of chimpanzees, which have played such an important role in Dr Prince’s research. The relationship between these near human animals and man is extensively explored. Finally, Prince speculates on the creation of a chimp-human hybrid, MANZEE, in the hope that this offspring could cast further light on the relationship between these two closely related animals.
Viral Hepatitis
There has been an explosion of both the incidence and medicalknowledge of viral hepatitis over the last two decades. Not only isthe incidence of infection and disease increasing, but newhepatitis viruses have been discovered, as well as the launch ofnew pharmaceutical products. Previously published by Churchill Livingstone, ViralHepatitis by Zuckerman & Thomas was the first comprehensivebook on hepatitis and is recognized as the standardreference text in this field. The new third edition, now published by Blackwell Publishing,addresses the recent advances in diagnosis and treatment withentirely revised and current topics. It covers the entire spectrumof viral hepatitis and has something of interest for everyspecialist. Viral Hepatitis presents the latest thinking from theleading international researchers and clinicians working in thisfield and the Editors are joined by a North American co-Editor forthis edition - Professor Stanley Lemon of the University of Texas,Galveston, TX, USA. This book offers an ideal reference for all healthcareprofessionals involved in the research and patient care of thisdisease.

Disease-modifying Therapy in Vasculitides
Especially the past two decades have seen renewed interest in the vasculitides. In this volume an international expert group presents the current state of knowledge and concentrates on principles of immune modulating therapy. Drawing from their work in rheumatology, nephrology, internal medicine, connective tissue disease and clinical immunology, they present new concepts in classificiation, diagnosis and pathophysiology of the vasculitides. Evidence from experimental and clinical trials is reviewed, as well as the outlook for further research.
Hepatitis B Research Advances
Hepatitis B is a disease of the liver caused by the Hepatitis B virus (HBV), a member of the Hepadnavirus family and one of several unrelated viral species which cause viral hepatitis.

Conquest of Invisible Enemies
"COVID-19 reminds us how acutely the virus can impact humanity. In fact, viruses existed long before the emergence of homo sapiens. In this book on the history of antiviral drug discovery, the human aspects are highlighted. In Chapter 1, the author regales us with several episodes where history was shaped by viruses causing smallpox, yellow fever, etc. The fascinating history of the first discovery of virus, tobacco mosaic virus, was also recounted. Chapters 2-5 covered four classes of viruses such as HIV, hepatitis viruses, influenza viruses and coronaviruses. Each chapter begins how the virus was discovered, followed by vaccine development, and then focuses on the discovery of small molecule antiviral drugs. For chemistry aficionados, the end of the book is replete with abundant of bibliography for further understanding of the minutia of the stories, followed by molecular structures of the antiviral drugs. This book is of interest to anyone who wants to know the science behind virus, vaccines and antiviral drugs. It is especially useful for healthcare professionals who are interested in knowing how viruses, vaccines and antiviral drugs are discovered"--
