Bridging the gap between basic and clinical science, this companion volume to Janeway's IMMUNOLOGY is designed to help students review and expand their knowledge of immunology in a clinical context. Presents 19 case studies in immunology illustrating key points in the field. Each real-life case begins with a brief, fully illustrated review of relevant science and follows the story of an actual patient. Pathology and treatment of the patient are carefully explained and followed by a Q & A format discussion that highlights relevant points from many areas of basic and clinical immunology.
