Slide Atlas Of Immunology

The visual aspects of immunology are presented in this slide atlas, through the use of diagrams and photographs. This fourth edition contains new artwork.

The Atlas of Immunology is a unique pictorial reference, containing more than 1000 illustrations depicting essentially every important concept in understanding immunology. Diagrams are included for all levels of understanding; some show basic ideas, while others provide a more detailed treatment for specialists.

A pocket atlas flexibook on this dynamic and wide-ranging field, indispensable for students of medicine and biology alike. Complex processes are well-illustrated in clear images that are not burdened with unnecessary details. Following an introductory part and a section on laboratory methods in immunology, the bulk of the book concentrates on the manifestations of immunological diseases in the human body, providing comprehensive capsule descriptions of all common immune diseases.

In the 11 years since this atlas first published, the immunology field has experienced an exponential increase in information. Besides the unprecedented advances in knowledge of cell receptors and signal transduction pathways, an avalanche of new information has been gleaned from contemporary research concerning cytokines and chemokines, with special reference to their structure and function. Visually Enhances Definitions in the Language of Immunology Now with more than 1300 illustrations, Atlas of Immunology, Third Edition is the most thorough and up-to-date treatment of essentially all concepts needed to comprehend the complex science of immunology. Completely revised and expanded, this third edition features: Hundreds of new illustrations Two new chapters – Immunophenotyping of Hematopoietic Malignances and Immunomodulators An expanded chapter on the history of immunology Additional human CD markers Written in a highly readable, two-column format, this complete reference covers a wide array of subjects, with content ranging from photographs of field pioneers to illustrations of molecular structures of recently characterized cell receptors, chemokines, and cytokines. The atlas also addresses the major histocompatability complex molecules, immunoglobulins, hematopoietic cells in leukemia, and molecules of related interest to immunologists. You won’t find another publication anywhere that matches the breadth or detail of illustrated immunological concepts.

With more than 1100 computer-generated figures, line drawings, and photographs, Atlas of Immunology clearly demonstrates thata picture is worth a thousand words. Written for students, basic scientists, and clinicians, this second edition provides a thorough and up-to-date treatment of all the concepts needed to comprehend contemporary imm

Written by best-selling author and official historian of the American Society of Immunologists, this comprehensive atlas depicts key historical figures and important events related to milestones in the field of immunology. From the origins of immunological study through the critical events that have shaped the field into what it is today, this vital collection of immunological data intersects all aspects of biomedical science. In addition to containing over 400 photographs and illustrations, it details the ways in which immunology has developed several key concepts, theories, approaches, and procedures that have affected the fields of molecular biology and biochemistry.
