Description

The Immunology Guidebook provides an easily accessible text-reference to the more up-to-date and difficult concepts in the complex science of immunology. It aims to demystify basic concepts and specialised molecular and cellular interactions. Its 18 chapters offer a logical and sequential presentation where much of the data is displayed in carefully designed tables. This book is intended for immunology students, researchers, practitioners and basic biomedical scientists.

  • Tables provide a quick reference to ‘difficult to find' immunology data
  • A distillate of the latest information on immunogenetics of the human MHC associated with tissue transplantation
