About this title

Synopsis

This addition to the Lecture Notes series provides a synoptic coverage of immunology as required for the biological sciences in general, and clinical, dental and veterinary medicine in particular. The book covers the immune system and how it works and progresses to the major areas of immunopathology, from immunodeficiency to transplantation. It is a coherent and contemporary text aimed at undergraduate students and gives a didactic rather than a discursive story line.

From the Back Cover

Lecture Notes on Immunology is a best-selling core text, providing a concise introduction to immunology. It focuses on basic science but informs the reader of the clinical relevance where appropriate for a clear understanding of the cells, molecules and processes of the immune system.

The book has been thoroughly updated to include new sections on: the interaction between innate and adaptive immunity; the roles and regulation of T-cell subpopulations, cytokines and adhesion molecules; genetic and environmental factors affecting susceptibility to infection, immunodeficiency and atopic disease.
