The main goal in compiling this book was to highlight the situation in Africa in terms of AIDS and opportunistic diseases. Several chapters reveal great poverty, an apocalyptic situation in many parts of Africa. Global migration of people resulted in their exposure to pathogens from all over the world. This fact has to be acknowledged and accepted as African reality. New, unconventional hypotheses, not determined by established dogmas, have been incorporated into the book, although they have not yet been sufficiently validated experimentally. It still applies that any dogma in any area of science, and medicine in particular, has and always will hinder progress. According to some biologists, in the future, AIDS is very likely to occur in a number of variations, as a direct result of the ongoing processes in the global human society. Thus, we urgently need a comprehensive solution for AIDS, in order to be ready to fight other, much more dangerous intruders.

"Harnessing the Power of Viruses explores the application of scientific knowledge about viruses and their "lives" to solve practical challenges and further advance molecular sciences, medicine, and agriculture. Virus-based tools and approaches in the fields of: (1) DNA manipulations in vitro and in vivo; (2) Protein expression and characterization; and (3) Virus-Host interactions as a platform for therapy and biocontrol are discussed. The book steers away from traditional views of viruses and technology, focusing instead on viral molecules and molecular processes that enable science to better understand life and offer means for addressing complex biological phenomena that positively influence everyday life. This publication is written at an intermediate level and is accessible to novices who are willing to acquire a basic level of understanding of key principles in molecular biology, as well as to advanced readers interested in expanding their biological knowledge to include practical applications of molecular tools derived from viruses."--Page 4 of cover.
