In this third edition leading experts in the growing field of immunopathology provide critical evaluations of the reliability of immunopathologic studies, particularly of autoimmune skin diseases. Special attention is given to diseases of the bullous and connective tissue, ie collagen-vascular diseases, and contributors provide the first comprehensive set of reviews on IgA class anti-endomysial antibodies which are specific for dermatitis herpetiformis (DH) and other forms of gluten-sensitive enteropathy, as well as other reviews on DH. New chapters include information on standardization methods, immune complexes, passive transfer of pemphigus, autoimmune bullous diseases in animals, and several other important reviews.
