内容説明・目次

内容説明

Now in its FIFTH EDITION, this widely acclaimed textbook has been updated and revised to incorporate new findings. Providing a concise yet thorough introduction to immunology, this text continues to provide complete coverage of all key topics in modern immunology without overburdening the reader with excessive detail or theoretical discussions. Each chapter is divided into short, self-contained units that address key topics illustrated by uniformly drawn, full color illustrations. In addition to updating all of the chapters, IMMUNOLOGY: A SHORT COURSE, FIFTH EDITION includes completely rewritten coverage of such key topics as complement, immunodeficiencies, and lymphoid neoplasms. Written in a clear, user-friendly style, this text is suitable for integrated courses that cover microbiology, immunology and pathology, as well as focused immunology courses.
