The Viruses: Biochemical, Biological, and Biophysical Properties, Volume 2: Plant and Bacterial Viruses deals with the biochemistry, biology, and biophysics of plant viruses. The viruses considered are tobacco and turnip yellow mosaic viruses; tobacco ringspot virus; potato virus X; and bacterial viruses, such as lysogenic bacteria and phages. This volume is organized into 10 chapters and begins with a discussion of the tobacco mosaic virus and other plant viruses, emphasizing the process of infection and synthesis and general features of the host-virus system. The next chapters focus on the purification and protein components of plant viruses; the chemical correlates of biological variability in viruses; and biological cycles of plant viruses in insect vectors. This book describes the bacteriophage, which is considered as a model virus in comparison with typical microorganisms and cellular organelles. It also introduces the reader to the kinetics of phage reproduction; the intracellular multiplication of bacterial viruses; and the process of lysogeny in bacteria. The book concludes with a chapter on irradiation of phage with ultraviolet light, decay of incorporated radiophosphorus (""suicide""), and ionizing radiation (usually X-rays). Biologists, botanists, biochemists, biophysicists, and microbial physiologists will find this book a rich source of information on plant and bacterial viruses.

An Atlas of the Commoner Skin Diseases focuses on dermatoses most frequently observed in the routine outpatient practice. The book provides abbreviated clinical descriptions, diagnosis, and prognosis, as well as outline of treatment. The book first offers information on the differential diagnosis and treatment of acne and its variants, alopecia areata, cellulitis, cheiropompholyx, and chilblains. The text also ponders on the diagnosis, treatment, and prophylaxis of dermatitis and its variants. The publication also takes a look at the treatment, antihistaminic agents, and psychotherapy of eczema and its variants, differential diagnosis, prognosis, and treatment of epithelioma and its variants, and the diagnosis and treatment of erythema induratum and its variants. The manuscript also takes a look at the prognosis and treatment of granuloma and its variants, herpes zoster, impetigo, lichen planus, neurodermatitis and its variants, and psoriasis. The manuscript is a dependable reference for readers interested in the commoner disease.
