| Abstract
|
:
|
Featuring contributions from eminent immunologists, microbial geneticists, and cell and molecular biologists, this single volume brings together a current understanding of how phagocytes recognize and respond to potentially pathogenic microbes. It explores and explains the complex biology underlying the different phagocyte lineages that enables them to sense and respond to their environments.
