Reviews

Praise for the Series The series which all immunologists need. --THE PHARMACEUTICAL JOURNAL Advances in Immunology must find itself among the most active volumes in the libraries of our universities and institutions. --SCIENCE Deserves a permanent place in biomedical libraries as an aid in research and in teaching. --JOURNAL OF IMMUNOLOGICAL METHODS A provocative and scholarly review of research. --JOURNAL OF THE AMERICAN MEDICAL ASSOCIATION Provides an extremely valuable source of reference and many stimulating ideas... the main repository of information in a rapidly developing subject. --THE LANCET Provides unrivaled value in both academic and fiscal terms and should be purchased by hard pressed librarians as a major priority to be jealously defended. --JOURNAL OF MEDICAL MICROBIOLOGY A very valuable serial publication... no serious student of immunology can afford to be without it. --ARCHIVES OF BIOCHEMISTRY AND BIOPHYSICS
