图书描述

The past year has been one of viral panic – panic about viruses, that is. Through headlines, public health warnings, and at least one homemade hazmat suit, we were reminded of the powerful force of viruses. They are the smallest living things known to science, yet they can hold the entire planet in their sway.

A Planet of Viruses is Carl Zimmer's eye-opening look at the hidden world of viruses. Zimmer, the popular science writer and author of National Geographic's award-winning blog The Loom, has updated this edition to include the stories of new outbreaks, such as Ebola, MERS, and chikungunya virus; new scientific discoveries, such as a hundred-million-year-old virus that infected the common ancestor of armadillos, elephants, and humans; and new findings that show why climate change may lead to even deadlier outbreaks. Zimmer's lucid explanations and fascinating stories demonstrate how deeply humans and viruses are intertwined. Viruses helped give rise to the first life-forms, are responsible for many of our most devastating diseases, and will continue to control our fate for centuries. Thoroughly readable, and as reassuring as it is frightening, A Planet of Viruses is a fascinating tour of a formidable hidden world.

这本书真的太有趣了,书名是病毒星球,但是更像是简述人类研究病毒的历史,最让我称奇的是,我们的DNA里面竟然有这么多病毒的贡献,就连胎盘,我们作为哺乳动物的特征之一,竟然也是因为某种病毒偶然进入我们祖先体内才进化出来的?!太有趣了。里面免不了会提到HIV, Ebola, SARS, MERS, 病毒从别的物种跨越到人类很多次了,但看了这些旧病毒的进化优劣分析,还是会觉得我们现在面对的,可谓是真的怪物新病毒。

极其简单的科普,涵盖了病毒研究中的重要分支:测序考古,疫情控制,生化反应及免疫调控。还有些新近的病毒学研究进展,以及全书特别注重病毒与人类和生物进化方面的思考。 总体上衔接高中和专业课一年级水平,实验方法少,数据少,电镜照倒不少。 大方向上把握比较准确,虽然第二版也是2015写的,但也涵盖了非典,中东,埃博拉,牛瘟等等,也写了些冠状病毒族的预言

新冠肺炎疫情还在持续,我们大部分人都处在自我隔离中,身体的禁锢以及每天超负荷的信息轰炸,都在加重我们的焦虑与不安。但焦虑和不安带来的另一面是,它使我们开始反思:也许通过科学知识去反思,这段时间以来,我们看到科学常识的匮乏使得我们如此地偏见与狭隘;抑或通过历...
