[comp.virus] Biological analogy source requested

alistair@minster.york.ac.uk (01/16/90)

I know there has been some discussion in this group of the extent
to which the analogy between computer viruses and their biological
cousins is tenable, though I have not followed it closely. However,
can anyone suggest any references on this topic? Alternatively, can
anyone suggest any good references on viruses in general. They
should preferably be in well-read journals, (so that they are likely
to be in our library, which has no books on the subject).

Thanks in anticipation.
