Immunity

Reviews / Votes

An excellent overview of what science knows about immunology today.
-Science-Based Medicine Written by a prominent researcher and scholar who not only followed the history of immunology but also participated in its creation, Immunity could be considered as an excellent summary of the classical, pre-systemic, immunological era.
-Metascience It is well written, informative and gives detailed descriptions even down to defining platelets-sometimes we make the assumption that individuals know these details but the author has pre-empted this and provided ample explanations, which in essence will widen his audience . . . I would recommend this book to students, healthcare assistants, clinicians, and nurse specialists working within all areas.
-Nursing Times [Immunity] is a remarkably clear, concise, well-written, and well-organized presentation of the components and interactions of the multiple parts of the immune system as it functions to protect the body from disease or foreign agents when functioning properly-or cause disease when malfunctioning . . . Written for the general public and for potential students of immunology, it could also serve as an accompanying text for any immunology course . . . Essential.
