Críticas

"The book is ordered in clear sections - with a nice logical progression from the basics and antigen recognition at the beginning, to clinical immunology at the end. This is very useful and important, especially for a subject like immunology in which it is easy to lose sight of the central principles if they are lost in a confusing web of clinical examples. Nice pictures, clear text, good section in techniques - another winner." Murmur - Cambridge University Medical School Gazette On previous editions: "Overall, Essential Immunology is the best of the immunology primers. It clearly outdistances other textbooks in this area by its scope, its organisation, its clarity, and its ability to convey a carefully balanced and up-to-date view of immunology. The medical student who first comes on the mysteries of immunology here, as well as the seasoned immunologist, will find it an adventure and joy to read." The New England Journal of Medicine "Medical practitioners of all ages and persuasions find Ivan Roitt's book a lifeline to prevent drowning in an ocean of immunological jargon." The British Medical Journal "This is an extremely comprehensive and clear introduction to the world of immunology. It is well organised and is backed up by colourful diagrams." Snakes Alive, The Journal of the Queens University Belfast Medical & Dental School "It is a very attractive, clear, contemporary textbook and should be a great success with undergraduate students. I can confidently say that I will be referring to this text in my next round of Immunology lectures." Lecturer at the University of Sunderland, Immunology News Published Reviews of the 10th Edition ."the book has been extensively updated, revised and amended so that it contains a huge range of cutting edge topics in inmunology. This makes this book one of the most comprehensive texts on the market as there is little of note that is missing." GKT Gazette, Medical & Dental Schools, April 2003 "This excellent textbook is commonly regarded as "the best of the inmunology primers" and the Tenth Edition will ensure that the text remains at the cutting edge of this fascinating area of science. .an invaluable resource to students of immunology and medicine."

Together they have extensively updated all aspects of the book to produce a new edition, which will be an invaluable resource to students of immunology and medicine. The tenth edition focuses on: dendritic cells, intraepithelial lymphocytes, NKT and gd T-cells, NK receptors, non-classical MHC presentation of non-peptidic antigens, analysis of TCR-peptide-MHC interactions, gene 'knockouts' and 'knockins', cell signaling pathways, chemokines and their receptors, intimate links between innate and adaptive immunity, regulatory T-cells, Fcg receptors, and activation-induced cell death signaling through pattern recognition systems prions.
