Cook, M.D., Professor of Med\

Product Review
Praise from the previous edition:"This is the book that every student (regardless of level) should read as he or she begins to study immunology."
-- Daniel G. Tenen, MD
Associate Professor of Medicine, Harvard Medical School Member, Harvard Medical School Program in Immunology
On the first edition:
"it covers each section of the immune system in the form of 'lectures' in which the author talks to you from the book as though he were in the same room.
A MUST-BUY for anyone having problems understanding the immune system (and, lets face it, who doesn't)?"
Barts and the London Chronicle
"this brief overview of immunology is superb."
Guy's Gazette, Guy's Hospital, Medical & Dental Schools
"I feel that Dr Sompayrac has contributed a worthy book which I personally have enjoyed reading, and I feel it will serve as an ideal introduction to the principles of immunology for students of either a medical or scientific background."
Southampton Health Journal
"makes a difficult subject like immunology much easier to understand. A fantastic introduction to basic immunology."
2nd Opinion, The Magazine of the Scottish Medical Schools
