Description
This work bridges the divide between the clinical characterization and treatment of autoimmune rheumatic diseases and an understanding of laboratory-based research and disease pathogenesis. This edition describes and explains advances in molecular biological techniques which have brought about major changes in understanding. It also covers the new therapies which have been developed for many autoimmune rheumatic diseases. This book is intended primarily for - trainee rheumatologists, rheumatology staff and rheumatologists; and secondarily - general internists, practitioners and paediatricians, nurse practitioners, scientists engaged in clinical based research in autoimmune rheumatic disease.
