Immunology: A Short Course, Sixth Edition introduces all the critical topics of modern immunology in clear and succinct, yet comprehensive fashion. The authors offer a uniquely balanced coverage of classical and contemporary approaches, basic and clinical aspects. As with the previous editions, the strength of the text is in complete review of modern immunology without burdening the reader with excessive data or theoretical discussions.
