''It does not presume any previous knowledge of either microbiology or immunology and is perfectly understandable by any scientifically educated reader.''Aslib Book Guide, Vol. 61, No. 2, February 1996, 'enjoyable to read and simple enough for even an 'interested lay person' to be able to understand it'D. Ala'Aldeen, Journal of Medical Microbiology, 1996, 'This book is perfect for those with no kowledge of immunology and infectious diseases. With an index that is easy to use, Infection and Immunity is very user friendly - especially for readers new to the topic of infectious diseases and immunology. There are numerous tables and schematicdiagrams used to illustrate key concepts in each chapter. These would make for excellent summary guides or study aids. For the medical students not wishing to spend time using dense and detailed textbooks however, a book like Infection and Immunity just might do the trick.'University of Toronto Medical Journal, Vol. 73, No. 3, May 1996, 'It does not presume any previous knowledge of either microbiology or immunology and is perfectly understandable by any scientifically educated reader.'Aslib Book Guide, Vol. 61, No. 2, February 1996, 'This is an immunology book that is a pleasure to read ... what raises it above the status of 'just another text book' is the inclusion of four discussion sections, called 'tutorials', consisting of a number of questions accompanied by extensive explanations ... anyone who requires a solidimmunological basis on which to build can be confidently recommended to read this reasonably priced book before embarking on the more ambitious texts listed at the end of it.'Frank Cox, King's College, London, Parasitology Today, vol. 12, no. 5, 1996, ''enjoyable to read and simple enough for even an 'interested lay person'to be able to understand it''D.
