Lecture Notes: Immunology by Ian Todd

Lecture Notes: Immunology is a best-selling concise introduction to immunology presenting the essential core knowledge for medical and biomedical science students. It takes an integrated approach and combines basic science and clinical information for a clear understanding of the cells, molecules and processes of the immune system. The book has been fully revised and updated throughout and includes a new chapter on Immunological Therapy. Divided into two parts, Part 1 covers immunity and the immune system and Part 2 deals with immunopathology. This text will prove invaluable as a well-balanced introduction to immunology and a rapid revision guide for final exams. The book contains: clear illustrations, tables and diagrams; integrated basic science and clinical information; and, key facts that support the understanding of important information. Lecture Notes: Immunology will appeal to medical students, junior doctors, allied health professionals, postgraduates and for those in the field of biomedical science. Reviews of previous editions: 'A thoroughly comprehensive basic text in immunology, this book makes a singularly dull subject seem rather interesting' - Sphincter - Liverpool medical school gazette. 'A splendid small text. It has a good level of detail despite its brevity and it is well-illustrated with tables, diagrams and 'key points' boxes' - 2nd Opinion, Edinburgh Medical School Gazette. 'This book goes way beyond the scope of the pathology course but is so easy to use that it is highly recommended. An excellent new chapter on AIDS is included. Another great book from the Lecture Notes series' - St Thomas' Gazette.
