How Vaccines Work by David Miles

An illuminating, reassuring guide to vaccination enriched with the latest science
A very good combination of the history of current vaccines and an explanation of what they do and how they do itAs a book for the lay public it is exceptional and I would recommend it to any prospective vaccine recipient or parent -- Stanley A Plotkin, Emeritus Professor of Pediatrics, University of Pennsylvania

David Miles has two decades of experience as a scientist and educator in the field of infectious disease immunology. He began his scientific career as a zoologist before moving to Gambia to study the infant immune response to vaccines against infectious diseases, and spent the ten years leading research projects there, in Malawi and in South Africa. David's research career was ended by a lymphoma, the treatment for which wiped out his immune system and left him more vulnerable to infection than a newborn baby. He moved into education as a tutor on the London School of Hygiene and Tropical Medicine's distance learning MSc in infectious diseases.
