Encyclopedia of Immunobiology
Encyclopedia of Immunobiology, Second Edition, Five Volume Set covers the full range of Immunology, presenting topics logically and making extensive use of "hot links" to refer the reader to related content. The new edition is not just an update of the original title; it vastly expands fields like immunotherapy, immunity to viral infection, vaccine development, inflammatory responses, and high throughput analyses. Containing 350 chapters written by world-leading experts, this edition integrates all concepts coherently and logically to paint a comprehensive picture of the evolving field of Immunology.

The immune system, complex and multi-layered, has evolved to differentiate between "self" and foreign pathogens, providing protection against infections while dysregulation can cause diseases like autoimmunity, allergies, and inflammatory disorders. This understanding has led to numerous therapeutic interventions crucial for human health improvement.
