Blackwell now offers the second edition of "How the Immune System Works". Written in the same offbeat 'lecture-style' you're familiar with, this new edition provides a perfect introduction to the essential principles of the human immune system, covered in 9 humorous, but highly informative, 'lectures'. It is perfect as an exam-prep review or an enjoyable overview of a difficult subject. New features to this edition include: extensive updates on the pathophysiology of immunology; over 20 new or updated figures outlining key concepts; and, thought questions designed to simulate classroom discussion.
