The new edition of Immunology builds on the tradition of fine teaching and scientific excellence established by Janis Kuby in the first three
editions and carried forward by new authors Richard Goldsby, Thomas Kindt, and Barbara Osborne in the previous edition. By presenting
essential immunology concepts in an experimental context, supported by innovative pedagogy, the book brings students the latest scientific
discoveries and clinical advances from the field in the most accessible format available.
This streamlined new edition enhances the book's classic features with a wealth of new information, enhanced art, and stronger clinical coverage.
