About this product
Product Information
Professor Klein has revised his acclaimed textbook of immunology as a result of feedback from his readership. The first edition received widespread praise for its clarity of explanation and won the Glaxo Prize for Textbook Writing. In his second edition, Professor Klein is joined by Dr Vaclav Horesji, who brings strength and expertise to the sections on cellular immunology. As is expected, this book has been completely revised to reflect the enormous advances that have been made in our understanding of immunology in recent years. This edition contains the latest thinking on the role of natural killer cells, T-cell receptor signalling and accessory molecules, complement receptors, lymphokines and their receptors, toxic shock and LPs, and tumour immunology, to name but a few. As with the first edition, the authors have aimed to present only what is known and have kept the discussion of fashionable hypotheses to an absolute minimum. Finally, by including background material on methodology and basic biochemistry, the authors ensured that this book can be comprehended without referral to any other book.

"This book will be of immense interest to all who teach or have a continuing interest in immunology..." -The Lancet on the previous edition"He has written a textbook that captures the sense of molecular and cellular activity characteristic of the immune system and yet encourages understanding at a permanent, fundamental and comprehensive level. I would imagine that by the end of a course with this as the primary text, a student would be able to think (not just memorize) immunology and, as with any language, someone is unlikely to forget once they have been thinking it.This is almost the textbook I have been waiting for - I only hope that Jan Klein can be persuaded to sit down again with it... Then this would surely be the 'faultless and complete textbook.'-Immunology Today, "This book will be of immense interest to all who teach or have a continuing interest in immunology..." -The Lancet on the previous edition "He has written a textbook that captures the sense of molecular and cellular activity characteristic of the immune system and yet encourages understanding at a permanent, fundamental and comprehensive level.

Update! Seller acknowledged the discrepancy in the mailing procedure and made it alright. Feel free to order books from them based on their new knowledge of how to ship hardback books with protective packaging.
Thanks to the seller for being forthright in making amends. This is an honest and above board seller.
