Infection, Resistance and Immunity

Designed as an introductory textbook Infection, Resistance and Immunity provides basic and established information on the workings of the immunological system and on infectious processes and their control. With sections on immunological disorders, immunization, immunodiagnosis and epidemiology relating immunology to practical problems in medicine, a section on comparative immunology introduces the student to differences among immunological systems among common species of nonhuman animals. Written for the advanced undergraduate, the focus on host-parasite interactions distinguishes this text from other standard texts, which focus on the cellular mechanisms of the immune response.Kreier, Julius P. is the author of 'Infection, Resistance and Immunity', published 2002 under ISBN 9789057025952 and ISBN 9057025957.
