Immunology: A Short Course, Sixth Edition introduces all the critical topics of modern immunology in clear and succinct yet comprehensive fashion. The authors offer a uniquely balanced coverage of classical and contemporary approaches, basic and clinical aspects. As with the previous editions, the strength of the text is in a complete review of modern immunology without burdening the reader with excessive data or theoretical discussions. Each chapter is divided into short, self-contained units that address key topics illustrated by uniformly drawn, full-color illustrations, many brand new to this edition. The sixth edition of this successful textbook newly covers:
- Toll-like receptors, their ligands and intracellular activation pathways
- The key role of activation induced cytidine deaminase (AID) in somatic hypermutation and class switch recombination.
- The autoimmune regulator (AIRE) gene in self-tolerance and autoimmunity
- T and B cell activation and the immunological synapse, as well as characterization and mechanisms of action of T regulatory cells
The companion website at www.wiley.com/college/coico featuresÂ problem sets, quizzes, and a list of relevant internet resources.

Praise for the previous edition:
