Immunology is a broad branch of biomedical science that covers the study of all aspects of the immune system in all organisms. This volume is a must-read for novice and expert alike. In an easy-to-read and thorough format, it covers bacterial, parasitic and viral infections of the liver, autoimmune liver disease, alcoholic and nonalcoholic fatty liver diseases, and transplantation.
