Book Description

This textbook provides a unique support in gaining essential knowledge on the immune response, its diagnosis and its modification by drugs and chemicals. The first section of the book, covering a basic introduction to immunology and its relevance for human disease, has been updated to accommodate new immunological concepts. The second section on immunodiagnostics has been further expanded to describe widely used molecular techniques and is followed by a systematic coverage of drugs affecting the immune system, revised to cover recent developments. The book concludes with a chapter on immunotoxicology. This third edition continues the unique format dealing with four related topics in a single volume, obviating the need to refer to several different textbooks. New aids to the reader include a two-column format, glossaries of technical terms and appendix reference tables. The emphasis on illustrations is maintained from the first edition.

Book Description

Abstract: A college textbook for students of medicine and other health sciences presents a progressive approach to the fundamental aspects of immunology and its practice. Twenty-nine topics by authorities in specific areas of immunology are organized into 3 major sections. The first section is devoted to fundamental principles, emphasizing recent findings on cellular interactions and genetic regulation. The second section consists of 13 topics on clinical applications of immunology (e.g., relative to bacteria, mycotic, viral, and parasitic diseases; transplantation immunology; blood groups; autoimmune diseases; antigens). The final section addressed several of the many practical applications of immunology in medical diagnosis and treatment (e.g., immunoassays; immunofluorescence; immunoelectonmicroscopy). (wz).
