Autoantibodies
Por Yehuda Shoenfeld (Editor); Pier Luigi Meroni (Editor); M. Eric Gershwin (Editor) "The editors and the authors have attempted herein to provide a critical review of more than 150 autoantibodies. We hope to offer a contemporary overview of what specific autoantibodies mean, not only to the clinical physician but also to the research scientist interested in basic understandings that lead to immunoglobulin self-reactivity against tissue antigens. In addition, we have tried to provide a summary of the clinical significance of each of the autoantibodies described herein and a brief overview of how the assays are done so that the reader can place them in the proper perspective."

Primer to the Immune Response (Second Edition)
Por Tak W. Mak; Mary E. Saunders; Bradley D. Jett "... Now we are pleased to present a second edition of the Primer to The Immune Response textbook and its accompanying online study guide, both of which have been fully updated to include the many exciting advances in immunology over the past few years. Specifically, all chapters now take into account the growing appreciation of the fundamental function of innate immunity as the foundation of all immune responses. As a result, the vital role of chronic inflammation in initiating and perpetuating autoimmune and inflammatory disorders as well as transplant rejection, hypersensitivity and cancer is highlighted. In addition, the critical importance of the body's commensal organism populations to immune protection and maintenance of homeostasis is emphasized, as is the role of local tissue microenvironments in directing immune responses. Lastly, a new chapter is included that draws together current information on immunodeficiencies that are caused by either a genetic abnormality (primary immunodeficiencies) or HIV infection (acquired immunodeficiency syndrome; AIDS)."

Food Allergy
Por Wesley Burks; John M. James; Philippe A. Eigenmann "Our main goal was to create a practical, relevant and clinically-based resource for food allergy and related adverse reactions to foods. The specific target audience was allergy specialists, medical residents and fellows-in-training, general pediatricians, family physicians, nutritionists and other health professionals with an interest in this important topic. Our hope was that the individual chapters in this textbook would provide the reader with ready access to pertinent information. The chapters have been specifically templated with boxed key points, clinical pearls and case studies to help illustrate key teaching points."

Middleton's Allergy Essentials
Por Robyn E. O'Hehir (Editor); Stephen T. Holgate (Editor); Aziz Sheikh (Editor) "In this first edition, we have extracted what we considered to be most useful to the healthcare practitioner in his or her daily practice, with a strong emphasis on disease diagnosis and management. Because the field is evolving so rapidly, we have also included some sections on mechanisms, but only when this adds value to each disease covered. In creating this text, the authors were asked to identify relevant sections in Middleton's Allergy: Principles and Practice, 8th edition, update these, and present the revised, abridged chapters with a generalist audience in mind. Naturally, such a text has to be selective, but we hope that the topics covered address the needs of both trainee and established practitioners across the healthcare sector, to enable them to access novel information to beneficially inform their practice. The text portion of each section is relatively brief and easy to review, with illustrations and tables aimed at providing additional and more detailed information when considered informative. We have attempted to adopt a similar format for each chapter. Throughout, there is emphasis on a practical approach to evaluation, differential diagnosis, and treatment of allergic disorders, to maximize its use. To achieve this, we have called upon the same internationally outstanding authors of the original Middleton's Allergy: Principles and Practice, 8th edition, chapters. The editors wish to express their sincere thanks to all of our authors for the very considerable amount of work they have undertaken to produce this easily accessible book."
