Clinical Immunology: An Introductory Text (Vademecum) (Vademecum)

This is a concise text in immunology for medical students. It covers cellular, humoral and clinical immunology. Each chapter begins with a definition of objectives followed by clearly illustrated descriptions of immunologic mechanisms. The clinical implications of the information in each chapter are addressed, and the chapters end with multiple choice questions. The chapters devoted to clinical immunology conclude with three or four cases and questions and answers designed to "walk" students through the cases in order to make a diagnosis.
