Immunology at a Glance provides a user-friendly overview
of the body?s defence mechanisms. Ideal from day one of a
medical, biomedical or life science course, the text begins with a
basic overview of both adaptive and innate immunity, before
progressing to applied immunological concepts, which look at what
happens when things go wrong, and how, in clinical medicine, each
body system can be affected by immunity.
Each double-page spread corresponds to a typical lecture and
diagrammatically summarises core concepts in immunology, through
accessible schematic diagrams on left-hand pages, with key points
concisely summarised on the right-hand page. There are also
self-assessment essay questions so you can test your knowledge.
New for this 10th edition:
- Thoroughly updated and reorganised chapters offer greater
clarity and easier understanding for those new to the subject - New chapters on cytokine receptors and ?Immunology in the
Laboratory? - A completely re-written section on autoimmunity
- A brand new companion website featuring self-assessment
questions and PowerPoint slides of images from the book, ideal for
teaching and revision at href="http://www.ataglanceseries.com/immunology">www.ataglanceseries.com/immunology

medical and biomedical science students. Perfect for exam
preparation, it provides the concepts and frameworks you need to
