Description

This scientific volume from the NATO Science Series A captures a critical moment in medical history. Based on a 1996 workshop in Erice, the text brings together many of the world's leading experts to discuss the fundamental science of prions. The work addresses the urgent scientific concerns surrounding Bovine Spongiform Encephalopathy (BSE), also known as Mad Cow Disease. It explores the significant data presented in early 1996 which indicated that BSE had crossed the species barrier. This development led to the emergence of a new variant of Creutzfeldt-Jakob Disease (nvCJD) in humans. As a specialized resource for those studying neurology and infectious diseases, this book provides essential insights into how these proteins affect both animals and humans. It serves as a detailed record of the discussions and scientific understanding regarding these brain diseases during a period of rapid discovery and global concern.
