This book reflects the current practice of immunological investigations throughout the world. It includes practical coverage for performing standard tests, as well as case histories to help place the tests in their proper context. The wide variety of methods is fully covered, along with the techniques used in determining results. The book has been designed to emphasize the clinical states which patients actually present, and thus encompasses the occasional overlapping of required techniques. Aberrations of the immune response have been divided into autoimmunity and allergy, following normal clinical practice. The chapters are written by practicing immunologists who provide expert guidance on alternative procedures, while 32 illustrations, many in full color, clarify the textual material. This is an ideal volume for researchers, scientists, and technicians who work in clinical immunology centers.Gooi, H. C. is the author of 'Clinical Immunology : A Practical Approach', published 1990 under ISBN 9780199630875 and ISBN 0199630879.
