Illustrates how the dialogue between different types of pathogens and the host immune system, as well as the cross-talk between the different members of the immune response, works. Serves as valuable reading for microbiologists interested in pathogenesis and immunology; clinicians with an interest in immunology, virology, vaccine development, infectious diseases, bacteriology, parasitology, pathology, and cell biology; and immunologists wanting to expand their knowledge of infectious diseases and their causative agents. 606 $aImmune response 606 $aCommunicable diseases$xImmunological aspects 615 0$aImmune response. 615 0$aCommunicable diseases$xImmunological aspects. 676 $a616.90479 700 $aKaufmann$b Stefan H.
