Book excerpt: Knapp und präzise erklärt dieses einführende Lehrbuch der Immunologie die Funktion des Immunsystems anhand sorgfältig ausgewählter Beispiele aus der klinischen Praxis und dem Experiment. Von Büchern mit ähnlichem Themenspektrum unterscheidet es sich durch den klar evidenzbasierten Ansatz. Die Autoren -- ein erfahrener Dozent und ein angesehener Forscher -- regen dabei stets zur kritischen Reflexion des gelernten Stoffs an. Based on examples using clinical and experimental data, this concise introductory textbook provides an insight into the immune system, prompting readers to ask critical questions in order to further advance our understanding.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book discusses the novel metabolic cross-talk between immune and tumor cells in the tumor microenvironment that promotes their growth and progression. It also describes deregulated metabolism in cancer cells that promotes suppressive and cancer cell-favourable microenvironment. Further, the book provides novel insights on the metabolic changes in immune cells that promote tumor cell growth and survival. In turn, it also reviews the involvement of immuno-onco metabolic cross-talk in the development of resistance to chemo-radiation therapy (CRT) in tumor cells. Lastly, it also explores the potential of immuno-oncology metabolism as a therapeutic approach against tumor cells.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Mangroves thrive in intertidal zones, where they gather organisms and objects from land, river, and ocean. They develop into complex ecologies in these dynamic in-between spaces. Mobilising resources drawn from semiotic materialism and the environmental humanities, this book seeks a form of social theory from the mangroves; that is to think interstitiality from the perspective of mangroves themselves, exploring the crafty and tenacious world-making they are engaged in. Three sections weave together theory, science and close observation, responding to calls within the environmental humanities for detailed attention to interactions in marginal spaces and those of interpretative tension. It examines interstitiality by considering theories of difference, relationality, and reflexivity in the context of mangrove socioecological materialities, drawing on influential writers such as Michel Serres, Jacques Derrida, Deborah Bird Rose, Donna Haraway, Brian Massumi and Maurice Merleau-Ponty as theoretical touchstones. Exploring Interstitiality with Mangroves is a lyrically crafted philosophical analysis that will appeal to scholars, researchers and students interested in the developing frontiers of more-than-human post-anthropocentric writing, theory and methodologies. It will be of interest to readers in ecocriticism, environmental humanities, cultural geography, place studies and nature writing.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book outlines three emergent disciplines, which are now poised to engineer a paradigm shift from hypothesis- to data-driven research: theoretical immunology, immunoinformatics, and Artificial Immune Systems. It details how these disciplines will enable new understanding to emerge from the analysis of complex datasets. Coverage shows how these three are set to transform immunological science and the future of health care.

Book excerpt: Tending Adam's Garden describes and explains the way in which our immune system works from a novel perspective. The book uses metaphors and examples to bring the immune system to life and explores the fundamental miracle of nature. Written in plain language for a broad audience, this book encompasses much more than just immunology, exploring more fundamental matters such as causality, information, energy, evolution, cognition and individuality, as well as the strategy of the immune system and its role in health and disease. Provides a unique perspective on the immune system from one of the keenest scientific and philosophical brains in the world Uses metaphors and case histories to explore themes in an accessible manner Written in plain language requiring no specialized vocabulary or specific scientific background in the subject

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book traces significant aspects of the history of immunology, exploring the immune system and immunodeficiency. The author recounts human hematopoietic development, and how a distinction of the immune system into thymus-dependent and thymus-independent components has been demonstrated in different animal species, including amphibians, birds, and mammals. Other themes explored in this book include discoveries about the role of the thymus of the Bursa of Fabricius in the development of immunologic competence, and observations on the changes in the lymphoid organs after bursectomy and thymectomy in chickens. Readers will discover how the bursa provides a unique microenvironment for the proliferation and differentiation of B cells, while thymectomized and irradiated animals were deficient in lymphocytes that mediated inflammatory responses, as assessed by skin graft rejection, delayed-type hypersensitivity, and graft versus host reaction. A clear perspective for understanding several diseases and also the entire lymphoid system emerges through the experiments and extensive histopathological studies of patients with primary immunodeficiency diseases that are described in these chapters. Researchers in the life sciences, in biomedicine and the history of medicine will all find something of value in this highly engaging work. It will also appeal to those with an interest in public health and neurobiology.
