دانلود کتاب ضروریات ایمونولوژی بالینی کلیپ و هنی – ویرایش هفتم

The new authors have been honoured to take on the responsibility for this well-respected textbook from Professor Helen Chapel and Dr. Mansel Haeney, who originally created the book and have been heavily involved in the previous six editions. In honour of their contributions both to the textbook and to developing and teaching clinical immunology, the book has now been renamed as Chapel and Haeney’s Essentials of Clinical Immunology and we have tried not to deviate too far from their original aims. The text has been updated as far as possible and all chapters have been revised. The original structure and format have been retained. Many of the illustrations, even though quite old now, are still relevant to illustrate key immunological principles. The Covid pandemic and the additional workload created, particularly for Samras Johnson V, has meant that progress on the book has been slower than anticipated at the initiation meeting pre-pandemic. Covid has also led to significant advances in the clinical immunological field and in particular it has kickstarted the clinical use of mRNA vaccines. Covid has produced its own fascinating immunological problems and unexpected immunological responses to vaccines. Recognition of ‘long Covid’ has provided new impetus to investigate the causes of post-infectious chronic fatigue. New immunological therapies are being introduced at speed for all immunological diseases and gene manipulation is going to have a huge influence on the management of genetic immunological diseases. Immunology remains an exciting field that is involved in all areas of clinical medicine. We hope that we can convey this excitement to the reader. As always, the authors are grateful to their families and friends for their forebearance during the writing process and also to many colleagues for direct and indirect help in updating the chapters. In particular, we are most grateful to Dr Martin Barnardo, Consultant Clinical Scientist in Histocompatibility and Immunogenetics for reviewing the chapter on Transplantation. The meticulous work of colleagues at LNS Indexing is also gratefully acknowledged. We are grateful to James Watson, Anne Hunt and the very patient team of editors at Wiley-Blackwell. As most authors, we must apologise to them for being slow to respond to their queries and to return proofs.
