Customer Reviews

excellent basic immunology book

As a research immunologist, I thought that this was a WONDERFUL introduction to the immune system because it had GREAT pictures and easy-to-understand explanations. My 9 yr old nephew enjoyed it and my boss wanted to buy one for his 7 yr old daughter. A super book for anyone who wants to learn more about immunology. TWO THUMBS UP!!!
