While the molecular mechanisms of antibody production and diversity and of cellular specific immune responses have been studied since many decades, the actions of viruses blocking and modifying the innate immune system, i.e. mainly the interferon (IFN) response and its various signaling pathways, have been recognized and studied in more detail only during the last 10-15 years. Viruses can counteract defense strategies of infected cells, and specific proteins of many viruses were found to act as IFN antagonists.

In this book a number of groups leading this area of research have presented reviews and updates of their research. In the introductory chapter M Shaw and P Palese review the IFN signaling pathways and provide a comprehensive list of virus-encoded proteins that target different components of the pathways of the IFN response. It is then reviewed how viruses elicit the IFN production (DE Levy and IJ Marié), how IFN regulatory genes are induced by viruses (group of GC Sen), how viruses have ‘learned’ to evade immune mechanisms, interfering with MHC mediated antigen presentation, blockage of apoptosis, mimicking of cytokines and cellular receptors, or by direct infection of immune cells (group of HL Ploegh). In additional chapters, the virus-encoded IFN antagonists of particular viruses are described, such as of influenzaviruses (A Garcia-Sastre), paramyxoviruses (group of RE Randall), herpes simplex virus (SJ Advani and B Roizman), poxviruses (JB Johnston and G McFadden), filoviruses, bunyaviruses and flaviviruses (CF Basler). For poxviruses, the mechanisms of molecular mimikry, i.e. viral proteins binding to cytokines or cytokine receptors, are of particular interest. A new area of research is the involvement of toll-like receptors in the activation of pathways of the innate immune response and of their interaction with viral proteins (SR Ross). Autophagy is a protective mechanism of mammalian cells that can be targeted by viral virulence gene products (group of B Levine). Finally, the ways in which the genetic variation of hosts influences the susceptibility to viral infections is reviewed in a short chapter with particular attention to infection with HIV (E Choi and S Chanock). 

There is minimal overlap between the different chapters, and the references are very up-to-date (a considerable number of them published in 2004). In several chapters the years of publication of references are omitted for no obvious reasons. Some chapters would have benefited from the presence of illustrations and tables.

This book is an excellent, up-to-date reference on a relatively young area of research in which virology, cellular biology and molecular pathogenesis govern the principles of coinvestigation. Thus, the book will be of great interest to virologists, molecular immunologists and biologists, and biochemists but also to clinical pharmacologists in the long-term search for new antiviral agents.

From the reviews:“The authors claim that a quick weekend reading of this book should help demystify inflammatory dermatopathology. … this section is well compiled, with most common diseases listed both individually and under the relevant tissue reaction patterns. The introduction leads the reader to the conceptual basis behind inflammatory tissue reaction patterns. … Illustrations are of sufficiently good quality … . this handy, easy to use, refreshingly simple book will be read by trainees and experienced practising pathologists … .” (Asok Biswas, Bulletin of the Royal College of Pathologists, October, 2011)

"John Miksic and Geok Yian Goh’s synthesis reflects a phenomenal effort and impressive scholarship; it is just such work that may inspire the next generation of archaeologists to research the past of Southeast Asia."
- Miriam T. Stark, Department of Anthropology, University of Hawaii at Manoa, USA
" (...) the authors have compiled a detailed gazetteer of Southeast Asian archaeological sites, ancient polities, artistic traditions, political economies, and religion. Invaluable to students of Southeast Asian history."
- E. R. Swenson, University of Toronto 
"This book provides readers with the most comprehensive overview of Southeast Asia’s archaeological history since C.F.W. Higham’s (1989) seminal book, The Archaeology of Mainland Southeast Asia. Moreover, Ancient Southeast Asia is the first synthesis to encompass not only the mainland regions but also Island Southeast Asia from Sumatra and Borneo to the Philippines. A work of such breadth and scope demands rich scholarship, which has been guaranteed by the authors’ enormous knowledge of the different regional contexts and their acquaintance with the material and textual evidence and the latest discoveries. The result is a highly useful compilation, which will enable readers to understand the dynamics of social-cultural evolution in a vast and geographically fragmented region."- Dominik Bonatz, Freie Universität Berlin
"John Miksic and Geok Yian Goh successfully accomplish three remarkable feats: delivering a highly accessible and sophisticated account of how Southeast Asia evolved as a world region from prehistoric times to AD 1600; providing a comprehensive research guide to the field of pre-modern Southeast Asian history and historical archaeology; and contributing important original insights to the theorisation of Southeast Asian and world history. One of the most inspiring achievements of this book is the authors’ enunciation of the notion of ‘interaction spheres’ and consistent deployment of it as an overarching analytical tool throughout the book.Erudite and meticulously documented, this book is a foundational text for students and scholars interested in Southeast Asian history and archaeology, world history and Silk Road studies."

From the reviews:“The book presents a broad and intensive look at modern nonlinear structural mechanics, including: theoretical background, computational methods, and applications. … I would recommend this book to anyone interested in nonlinear structures and dynamics … . It represents a comprehensive reference for both its breadth of cutting edge topics and its exhaustive list of references. The care taken with the technical complexity of the illustrative models in each chapter is one of the key characteristics of this book.” (Justin Thomas Webster, Mathematical Reviews, March, 2014)“The book is an impressive treatise on non-linear structural mechanics and the author needs to be congratulated for presenting important concepts of nonlinear dynamics and mechanics with elegance and simplicity. … the book by Lacarbonara is a comprehensive tour de force in nonlinear structural mechanics. … The book can lend itself well to several different versions of a graduate course on nonlinear mechanics. In addition, the references included make this book an excellent and unique reference source.” (B. Balachandran, Meccanica, Vol. 48, 2013)

From the reviews:“This book is in two parts. … The work is based on original research by the authors. … The book contains many numerical examples of real-life engineering structures, in particular aviation engines. … This book is an important addition to the library, being more than just a résumé of known mathematical techniques with the addition of an explanation of the authors’ original work.” (Rupert Thornely-Taylor, International Journal of Acoustic and Vibration, Vol. 18 (2), June, 2013)
