内容説明

Therapeutic Immunology is a comprehensive review of the clinical application of the drugs, biologic agents, and procedures used to treat immunologic diseases. It is the only reference that provides current information on antibodies, cytokines, gene and cell therapies, vaccines, and other therapeutic approaches in the managament of immune system disorders. This book will show how immunology has come of age as a clinical discipline and is now able to provide treatment strategies for many previously incurable diseases.
