Description   From Book News, Inc. This introductory text/CD-ROM is intended for use in immunology courses for medical students, advanced undergraduate biology students, graduate students, and scientists in other fields. The text presents immunology from the perspective of the host's interaction with an environment that contains harmful microbes. This sixth edition contains chapter discussion questions, plus an extensively revised chapter on the evolution of the immune system. The CD-ROM contains animations based on figures in the book and videos of experiments. Janeway was affiliated with Yale University School of Medicine.Copyright ? 2004 Book News, Inc., Portland, OR Product Description: Immunobiology, Sixth Edition guides the reader through the immune system in all its aspects - from the first engagement of innate immunity to the generation of the adaptive immune response and its clinical consequences. The Sixth Edition has been thoroughly revised and updated, and now includes end-of-chapter questions. Immunobiology sets the standard for currency and authority with its clear writing style and organization, full-color art program, scientific accuracy, frequent updates, and consistent viewpoint - that of the host's interaction with an environment containing many species of potentially harmful microorganisms. The Sixth Edition of Immunobiology includes a CD-ROM with original immunological animations based on figures in the book and videos selected from visually compelling experiments. All the animations and videos are accompanied by a voice-over narration. The CD also contains an archive of all the figures in the book, loaded into PowerPoint presentations. There is one presentation for each chapter of the book, and figures follow the order of the chapter.   Contents   PART1. AN INTRODUCTION TO IMMUNOBIOLOGY AND INNATE IMMUNITY chapter 1.
