Weir's Handbook of Experimental Immunology, Immunochemistry and Molecular Immunology (Volume I)

The new fifth edition of the highly acclaimed Handbook of Experimental Immunology has been completely restructured and extensively revised to reflect the considerable increase in the importance of immunology as a research discipline. Produced in four volumes, which are available for separate purchase, or as a set, the text provides a complete reference which includes experimental protocols and explications of general principles. Each section contains overviews, and chapters describing the background and technical detail of a comprehensive range of immunological procedures in immunochemistry, cellular immunology, genetics and molecular immunology, and the application of immunological methods. It is also available on CD-ROM. All material available within the four-volume text can be found on this dualplatform CD-ROM including the extended indexing and cross-referencing possible with electronic media. The CD-ROM also comprises several lengthy and highly informative contributions that were abridged in the printed version. Additional notes and illustrations that extend the scope of the material presented, and a statistical software package that complements the statistical section of the printed version are also included.
