Este volumen, en su 7.ª edición, aborda la información más reciente sobre los virus de ARN, sus factores de virulencia y patogenicidad, los métodos de los que disponen para burlar la respuesta inmunitaria, las características que les permite causar infecciones a larga escala, las opciones de tratamiento más recientes y las más avanzadas y actuales formas de inmunización. La serie Fields. Virología es la referencia con mayor autoridad y actualización para virólogos, especialistas en enfermedades infecciosas, microbiólogos y médicos internistas, así como para estudiantes de medicina avanzados que deseen profundizar en la disciplina o seguir una carrera en enfermedades de transmisión. El contenido de este volumen abarca todos los virus de ARN de importancia médica, incluidos los que infectan a los seres humanos y a los animales. Es un recurso completo que abarca tanto la ciencia básica como las características médicas y clínicas de cada virus, haciendo hincapié en los virus de mayor relevancia, a la vez que incluye otros virus en casos específicos en los que se conoce más sobre sus mecanismos de replicación o patogénesis.
