First and foremost, I give thanks to the Almighty God for giving me the knowledge, the strength and the direction to complete this summary of my life’s work on bacteriophages. I dedicate this book to my wife Ghazal, and my three daughters: Maryam, Sarah and Amna in thanks for their unwavering support and understanding. In recognition for his dedication and assistance in articulating this work, I have named my friend Richard Limoges as my co-author. Last but not least, I share this information as guidance to researchers and students who seek a greater understanding of natural biological processes and wish to serve mankind with their knowledge and talents.
