内容説明
This book provides detailed and specific information on the theoretical concepts in immunology that are applicable to the laboratory sciences, underlying theories of procedures that are applicable to specific disorders, and selected disorders that are relevant to clinical laboratory science. The 3rd edition is a comprehensive, readable, student-friendly text featuring revised content and new, up-to-date information. The first two sections of the book provide foundation knowledge and skills that progress from basic immunologic mechanisms and serologic concepts, to the theory of laboratory procedures such as automated techniques. The final two sections emphasize medical applications that are relevant to clinical laboratory science, addressing representative disorders of infectious and immunologic origin as well as topics such as transplantation and tumor immunology. Each chapter begins with an outline and learning objectives, ending with a summary, review questions, and a bibliography. Most chapters also contain case studies and procedures that challenge readers to apply their knowledge to real-life situations.

- Step-by-step procedures throughout the book combine both the immunological theories presented in the text with real-life laboratory tests.
- Comprehensive coverage presents the range of issues students need to learn in immunology and serology, also serving as an effective bench reference for practitioners.
- Various features such as the Chapter Outline, Learning Objectives, Procedures, Case Studies, Chapter Highlights, Review Questions, and Bibliography reinforce the most important points in each chapter and make information more memorable, eliminating the need for a separate study guide or lab manual.
- A vibrant two-color design enhances the text, illustrations, tables, and boxes to highlight important features.
- A glossary in the back of the book gives students convenient reference to succinct, accurate definitions of important words.
- New chapters - Molecular Techniques (Chapter 11), Bone Marrow Transplantation (Chapter 29), and Tumor Immunology (Chapter 30) - provide cutting-edge information to make the book more complete.
- New content covers the latest safety information, the newest diagnostic methods and therapeutics for AIDS, up-to-date information on understanding vaccines, inclusion of Apoptosis in the cell cycle, updated lymphocyte membrane characteristics, and a revised list of cytokines with immunologic functions.
- The chapter on Tick-Borne Diseases (Chapter 16) has been expanded to include Borreliosis and Ehrlichiosis in addition to new information on Lyme Disease.
- The chapter on The Cells and Cellular Activities of the Immune System: Lymphocytes and Plasma Cells (Chapter 4) has been revised to include T-Lymphocyte Membrane Markers.
- 20 new real-life clinical case studies have been added throughout the text.
- This edition provides over 425 new review questions, plus a new Test Your Immunology Vocabulary appendix that also contains 84 test questions.

Poorly organized
2003/8/11
形式:ハードカバー
I have been a medical technologist for 16 years and have taught immunology for 12 years in the classroom and clincial setting. This book is poorly organized and not relevant to the normal clinical lab. New terms for a med tech student are used in the first chapter and then defined in later chapters. There is an entire section on RID which only high volume reference labs use and is no longer recommended by ASCP to be covered in med tech schools. The lack of newer illustrations and photographs, and boring layouts of tables and charts is also a negative. I have actually given our students websites to refer to instead of sections in this book to complete their objectives.

A book about as good as her teaching...
2001/4/11
形式:ハードカバー
This book is complex. Any normal student would be completely overwhealmed by this book geared more towards Medical School students rather than traditional college students. The language is too technical and the photos are laughable. There are no colorful pictures for those of us who like to be able to actually see what we are learning, there is no clear cut explaination of any of the suggested topic, and all in color green and the suggested photograph on page 199. Other than subtle hints of green, this black and white "textbook" is utterly and completely boring!

Horribly written
2011/1/3
形式:ハードカバー|Amazonが確認した購入
I am using this book for my immunology course for a clinical lab sciences program. This book does not explain things well at all. The paragraphs are composed of definitions defining more definitions and nothing is made clear. The organization doesn't make sense and is confusing. When it starts talking about values, it doesn't even explain what the values actually mean. The tables and graphs are not explained at all and are very unhelpful and even confusing/misleading sometimes. I think it's a horrible textbook for a 3000/4000 level immunology class. I had to constantly look up words and definitions because this book was just not clear at all.
