This thoroughly revised andupdated new edition provides outstanding coverage of the most important aspects of immunology. Assuming no previous knowledge of the subject, the book gives step-by-step detail on topics such as antigens, hypersensitivity, autoimmunity, reproductive immunity and immunodeficiency. There is an accompanying website with supplementary material.
