About this title

Review

“Middleton's Allergy has no peer and should be included in any library requiring a compendium on allergic diseases. ―JAMA, review of previous edition

''To the practicing allergist, allergy student, pediatrician or laboratory allergy researcher, seeing a new addition of Middleton’s allergy is like having an old friend drop in for tea. This comprehensive allergists’ bible has gone from strength to strength and is a most useful source of reference. The emphasis throughout the two volumes is to link translation of basic research in allergy through to clinical practice, and this has been accomplished with considerable success. As is customary the chapters are divided into sections encompassing immunology, aerobiology and allergens, physiology, clinical science, diagnosis and therapeutics.''

Middleton’s Allergy: Principles and Practice, N Franklin Adkinson

"This is the only textbook on allergy principles one needs to own. It is a superb encyclopedic reference when you are in the mood to know everything about a particular topic." - Patricia Wong, MD, Doody's Review Service
