Discover Immunology in a Short Course

Immunology may be a difficult course, but this book's clear explanations and chapter review questions make it an accessible and beneficial read for students. The new edition also contains two additional chapters on cytokines and immune responses to infection - both of which are crucial to understanding the immune system's strength and weakness. If you haven't quite grasped the concepts of immunology yet, then this book is a great tool to help you do so!

Note: While we do our best to ensure the accuracy of cover images, ISBNs may at times be reused for different editions of the same title which may hence appear as a different cover.
