Description

Book Synopsis
Gives a perfectly balanced overview of the field, describing the key infectious agents our bodies encounter and how our immune system responds to them. It also explains how diseases are spread and what measures we can take to control this spread, from vaccination to increasing public awareness.

Trade Review
Infectious disease affects everyone. If you are hoping to understand the mechanism of infections and immunity at an introductory level, then you will find this an excellent reference book: my copy is well thumbed and already sports a forest of bookmarks. * Susan Omar, The Biologist *
