Diagnosis of Human Viruses by Polymerase Chain Reaction Technology
The basis for the effective treatment and cure of a patient is the rapid diagnosis of the disease and its causative agent, which is based on the analysis of the clinical symptoms coupled with laboratory tests. Although rapid advance ments have been made in the laboratory diagnosis of virus diseases, the neces sary isolation of the causative virus from the clinical specimens is a relatively long procedure. Viruses which integrate into the cellular DNA (such as human immunodeficiency virus, HIV -1, or hepatitis B virus) are difficult to identify by molecular techniques, while viruses which exist in the clinical material in low concentrations are even more formidable to identify. Recently, the application of the polymerase chain reaction (peR) technique developed by K. D. Mullis and detailed in the study by Saiki et al. (1985) led to a revolution in virus diagnosis. The peR technique was rapidly applied to the diagnosis of viruses in clinical material. Volume 1 of Frontiers of Virology provides new information on the advan tages of the use of the peR for the diagnosis of many human disease-causing viruses, as well as on some problems with its use.
The Retroviridae
depth overview of the retrovirus family. I have greatly enjoyed and learned from this experience. Each chapter is an excellent introduction to the topic covered and provides a good foundation for further work in the field. Jay A.

Human Herpesviruses
This comprehensive account of the human herpesviruses provides an encyclopedic overview of their basic virology and clinical manifestations. This group of viruses includes human simplex type 1 and 2, Epstein–Barr virus, Kaposi's Sarcoma-associated herpesvirus, cytomegalovirus, HHV6A, 6B and 7, and varicella-zoster virus. The viral diseases and cancers they cause are significant and often recurrent. Their prevalence in the developed world accounts for a major burden of disease, and as a result there is a great deal of research into the pathophysiology of infection and immunobiology. Another important area covered within this volume concerns antiviral therapy and the development of vaccines. All these aspects are covered in depth, both scientifically and in terms of clinical guidelines for patient care. The text is illustrated generously throughout and is fully referenced to the latest research and developments.
Sem Limite - A Vida de Péter Murányi
O que teriam em comum o presidente norte-americano John F. Kennedy, o primeiro-ministro de Israel Menachem Begin, os presidentes brasileiros Ernesto Geisel e Jânio Quadros, o ministro da Educação Jarbas Passarinho e o governador de São Paulo Laudo Natel? Todos eles, de algum modo, fizeram parte da vida do empresário Péter Murányi. Ele deixou para trás a Hungria, vitimada pelos horrores da Segunda Guerra Mundial, e aqui se tornou pioneiro ao iniciar um próspero negócio de embalagens com peças de sucata – surgia a reciclagem. Sem limites e sem medo, buscou o diálogo com estes e outros personagens históricos nacionais e internacionais para realizar os muitos projetos que elaborou para colocar o Brasil no rumo do crescimento. Um homem que sonhava grande.
