Review
What users of the previous edition said: “The voice of the author is one of a true teacher whose enthusiasm for the subject is contagious. There are far too many dry, “academic,” or “scientific” textbooks around and this book felt very fresh in comparison.” Medical Student, University of Texas, South Western Medical Center at Dallas
“As if immersed in a conversation, this book is able to balance the line between facts, humor and history. The analogies and metaphors allow such a notorious subject to be leisurely digested over a couple days. From references to the Pillsbury Doughboy, Grace Kelly, quarterbacks and the Bubble Boy, this is an entertaining read as well as an informational read.” Medical Student, Eastern Virginia Medical School“Best textbook I have ever had! I am a first-year veterinary student. This book was a required text and I am SO glad I bought it! Very thin book, super easy to read. It is like reading a good story. This is a must for anyone taking immunology.” Amazon.com reviewer
