Stiehm's Immune Deficiencies: Inborn Errors of Immunity

Stiehm’s Immune Deficiencies: Inborn Errors in Immunity, Second Edition, is ideal for physicians and other caregivers who specialize in immunology, allergies, infectious diseases and pulmonary medicine. It provides a validated source of information for care delivery to patients, covering approaches to diagnosis that use both new genetic information and emphasize screening strategies. Management has changed dramatically over the past five years, so approaches to infection and autoimmunity are emphasized in an effort to improve outcomes and disseminate new information on the uses of targeted therapy.

• Covers immune deficiencies that are presented in a practical way, providing helpful information for active clinicians
• Fills an increasingly deep gap in the information available to clinicians
• Presents both clinical management and scientific advances for immune deficiencies
• Provides a primary resource for physicians in the field of immunodeficiencies
• Includes website access to a range of videos relevant to the topics discussed
