内容説明

The central thesis of this text is that the immune system exists to protect its host from infection and that its evolutionary history was shaped by this challenge. The first part summarises the basic immunological concepts, the middle three parts deal with main aspects of adaptive immunity, while the final part integrates the material at the level of the complete organism in both health and disease.
