This breakthrough not only unearthed the causative agent of non-A non-B hepatitis that had eluded the best of scientists for more than 20 years, but also was symbolic of another chapter in the changing paradigm of modern science and medicine. The re- lutionary concept of identifying a pathogen without actually visualizing or detecting it will forever redefine the way we approach pathogenesis of d- eases whose cause is unknown. It is benefitting that this discovery treads on the heels of the human immunodeficiency pandemic, and parallels the ala- ing emergence of various microbial pestilences in the world. Despite the rapid advances in our understanding of the virus, there is much remaining to learn about it. This book highlights some of the important areas yet to be unraveled. As illustrated in this book, the marriage between basic science and clinical medicine is essential in our quest for these unknowns. The last decade has focused on the fundamentals of the virus; the next decade must undersc | 出版日期 | Book 1998 | 关键词 | infectious diseases | 版次 | 1 | doi | https://doi.org/10.1385/0896035212 | isbn_softcover | 978-1-4899-4348-4 | isbn_ebook | 978-1-59259-260-9Series ISSN 1543-1894 Series E-ISSN 1940-6037 | issn_series | 1543-1894 | copyright | Springer Science+Business Media New York 1998 |
