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.
- The most complete and authoritative survey of a rapidly evolving field
New author Leslie Berg (University of Colorado Medical School) joins Kenneth Murphy and Casey Weaver in comprehensively updating the text with exciting new discoveries, including information on SARS-CoV-2 and the latest research on the cGAS/STING pathway. When deciding what to include, the authors consulted with over a hundred global experts in subfields of immunology to ensure the currency and accuracy of the updates.
- Digital tools for helping students master immunology concepts
New digital resources help instructors teach and students learn. Adaptive and formative, InQuizitive supports instructors whose students have a wide variety of previous exposure to immunology by addressing the two primary challenges that most students face: vocabulary and building a conceptual understanding of immunology. The Norton Teaching Tools site makes it easy to find resources for active learning, primary literature suggestions, and more.
- Thoroughly updated figures, discussion questions, and references help students learn complex concepts
An iconic illustration program featuring 88 NEW figures, a comprehensive text, end-of-chapter thought questions, and extensive references, provide a most thorough introduction to immunology.
