Encyclopedia of Infection and Immunity

Four Volume Set

The Encyclopedia of Infection and Immunity is a comprehensive, four-volume resource that offers unprecedented insights into the complex interactions between bacteria, fungi, parasites, and their hosts. This multi-faceted work delves into a variety of pivotal areas, including:

  • Host cellular and immune responses to microbial challenges
  • Molecular mechanisms underlying the actions of beneficial microbes and host-associated microbial communities
  • Microbial pathogenesis and the identification of virulence factors
  • Experimental models utilized in the study of infectious diseases
  • Factors contributing to host resistance or susceptibility
  • The generation and regulation of innate and adaptive immune responses

Composed of over 200 chapters, each meticulously crafted and reviewed by leading experts in the fields of microbiology, immunology, and infectious diseases, this encyclopedic collection is designed to serve as an essential reference for:

  • Students seeking to deepen their understanding of infection and immunity
  • Researchers looking to explore new findings and methodologies
  • Academics wishing to enhance their teaching and scholarship
  • Industry practitioners aiming to apply scientific insights to real-world challenges

A century after pioneers like Robert Koch and Louis Pasteur identified the microbial etiology of infectious diseases, microbiology is now experiencing a transformative resurgence. This evolution is fueled by the recognition that shifts in host-associated microbial communities could underpin a myriad of non-communicable diseases. Such advancements have been propelled by cutting-edge high-throughput sequencing technologies, which have unveiled a plethora of information regarding the human microbiome and its vast physiological implications.
