Evolutionary Concepts in Immunology by Robert Jack,Louis Du Pasquier Pdf

Immunology is a nodal subject that links many areas of biology. It permeates the biosciences, and also plays crucial roles in diagnosis and therapy in areas of clinical medicine ranging from the control of infectious and autoimmune diseases to tumour therapy. Monoclonal antibodies and small molecule modulators of immunity are major factors in the pharmaceutical industry and now constitute a multi billion dollar business. Students in these diverse areas are frequently daunted by the complexity of immunology and the astonishing array of unusual mechanisms that go to make it up. Starting from Dobzhansky’s famous slogan, “Nothing in biology makes sense except in the light of evolution”, this book will serve to illuminate how evolutionary forces shaped immunity and thus provide an explanation for how many of its counter intuitive oddities arose. By doing so it will provide a conceptual framework on which students may organise the rapidly growing flood of immunological knowledge.

Immunology by Basiro Davey Pdf

Immunology: A Foundation Text This book provides an integrated approach to the study of immunology for people who seek a user-friendly', concise and up-to-date foundation text. There can be few subjects that so obviously demand such an approach. Immunology overlaps with the biological disciplines of biochemistry, cell biology, genetics, physiology, microbiology and parasitology - relying on methods and concepts derived from these disciplines, and in turn contributing to them. After describing the components of the immune system, and explaining how they interact, the author goes on to discuss the many important applications of immunology in laboratory techniques and in medicine. In addition to this introductory' material, the book considers new, and likely future developments - giving the reader a taste of the rapid rate of progress in this important field. The author's clear and concise text is supported by a wealth of illustrations (most in two-colour), self-assessment questions and a comprehensive index - making this an essential text for all life science students entering this field, or for health practitioners seeking to update their knowledge.

Medical Immunology Made Memorable by J. H. L. Playfair,Peter M. Lydyard Pdf

This book covers the core of both basic science and clinical immunology as required by medical students. Immunology is an inherently difficult subject and most competing titles include far too much complex scientific detail for most medical courses. This book covers just the core of the subject essential for understanding the clinical importance of the immune system and diseases caused by its malfunction.
