Immunology for Medical Students

Joint Winner of The Richard Asher Prize at the Society of Authors and Royal Society of Medicine Medical Book Awards. Presenting a unique balance between science and clinical relevance, this new text is a concise, well-illustrated overview of immunology for students. Focusing on what medical students need to know, it fills the niche for a reader-friendly, patient-oriented text in this challenging field. Clinical boxes include real patient scenarios, making the textbook interesting and relevant. Experimental detail is kept to a minimum, used only where it helps the student understand difficult concepts. It also provides a superb review of major components in immunological interaction: important molecules, specific immune response and role of innate response in complementing specific response, and immunity to microbes.Helbert, Matthew is the author of 'Immunology for Medical Students ', published 0016 under ISBN 9780323035767 and ISBN 0323035760.
