Rezensionen
From the reviews: "The involvement of the immune system in central nervous system diseases is highlighted in this book, which details important advances in the understanding of certain aspects of neuroinflammation. ... This is clearly appropriate for clinicians and researchers who are interested in neuroinflammation in the central nervous system. It also can be a valuable research guide for students who are interested in learning some basics on this topic. ... It makes worthwhile contributions to this area."
