Summary
"On Sunday, 12th February, 2001 the code for the entire human genome was finally deciphered. Embedded in the code were large fragments that were directly derived from viruses. These fragments were evidence for the extraordinary role of viruses in the evolution of all life on earth and their vital involvement in a huge range of biological processes. Virolution is the definitive guide to this amazing new field of research that has redefined the science of evolution and disease."--BOOK JACKET.
