Immunobiology: The Immune System in Health and Disease with CD-ROM ANNOTATION
"...a new edition of a cutting-edge, definitive, and lucid text, presenting the field of immunology from the viewpoint of the host's response to infection...with new chapters and updated information throughout." Appropriate for: Microbiologists/Immunologists, Immunology Students.
SYNOPSIS
Immunobiology, Sixth Edition guides the reader through the immune system in all its aspects - from the first engagement of innate immunity to the generation of the adaptive immune response and its clinical consequences. The Sixth Edition has been thoroughly revised and updated, and now includes end-of-chapter questions. Immunobiology sets the standard for currency and authority with its clear writing style and organization, full-color art program, scientific accuracy, frequent updates, and consistent viewpoint - that of the host's interaction with an environment containing many species of potentially harmful microorganisms. The Sixth Edition of Immunobiology includes a CD-ROM with original immunological animations based on figures in the book and videos selected from visually compelling experiments. All the animations and videos are accompanied by a voice-over narration. The CD also contains an archive of all the figures in the book, loaded into PowerPoint presentations. There is one presentation for each chapter of the book, and figures follow the order of the chapter.
FROM THE CRITICS
Clinical Immunology
Immunobiology is widely regarded as an outstanding general immunology textbook, equally at home on the bookshelf of an undergraduate as on that of a professor emeritus. Immunobiology is, and remains, one of the most comprehensive and clear texts on the subject, and is of use to a wide audience; this sixth edition is the most impressive one yet.
