Exercise immunology is an important, emerging sub-discipline within exercise physiology, concerned with the relationship between exercise, immune function and infection risk. This book offers a comprehensive, up-to-date and evidence-based introduction to exercise immunology, including the physiological and molecular mechanisms that determine immune function and the implications for health and performance in sport and everyday life.

Written by a team of leading exercise physiologists, the book describes the characteristics of the immune system and how its components are organise 606 $aExercise$xImmunological aspects 608 $aElectronic books. 615 0$aExercise$xImmunological aspects. 676 $a612.7/6 701 $aBishop$b Nicolette$0941025 701 $aGleeson$b Michael$f1956-$0941026 701 $aWalsh$b Neil$0941027 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910462947403321 996 $aExercise immunology$92122184 997 $aUNINA
