By Kenneth M. Murphy, Casey Weaver, and Leslie J. Berg
Immunobiology is the premier text for immunology at the advanced undergraduate, graduate, and medical school levels. Beginning students appreciate the book’s clear writing and informative illustrations, while advanced students and working immunologists value its comprehensive scope. Every chapter is reviewed with experts to ensure accuracy, authority, currency, and depth.
The Tenth Edition is supported by InQuizitive, Norton’s award-winning, easy-to-use adaptive learning tool that helps students learn immunological terms and apply them conceptually.
