Drawing on her extensive classroom experience, the editor provides a clearly written contemporary introduction to the body's responses to disease. She brings a strong experimental/clinical focus to the study of immunology at the molecular and cellular levels, employing a range of effective pedagogical tools not found in other introductory books on the subject. A glossary, chapter summaries, and study questions using clinical cases are included.
