IMMUNOLOGY - Edited by Stefan H.E. Kaufmann
and Michael W. Steward.
Immunology brings together the scientific basis and clinical
aspects of the acquisition and progression of the host response to
infectious disease, providing comprehensive coverage of this fast-moving
field. It is included in the tenth
edition of Topley & Wilson’s Microbiology and Microbial
Infections as a stand-alone volume for the first time.
Arranged under the topics of innate immunity and inflammation, soluble
mediators, acquired immunity, infection
and immunity, immunopathology, and immunodeficiency and vaccines,
Immunology allows the reader to identify
specific topics related to infectious diseases, and also to find information
on the basic mechanisms underlying immunity.
Chapters include information on the clinical issues of immunology
as they relate to immunopathology and immunodeficiency, and on the
different aspects of vaccination and vaccine development.
The international authorship and breadth of coverage ensure that Immunology
will be an unrivalled resource for all members of the immunology community
and associated microbiological disciplines, including research scientists,
clinical laboratory scientists, infectious disease specialists and
other clinicians. In addition, Immunology will be an invaluable
reference for students and teachers of immunology.
