Infection & Immunity
Our immune system is a complex network of cells continually battling against a barrage of attacks from our environment, quite literally to save our lives.But what protects us from the potentially life-threatening microorganisms that surround us every day?In the lucid, accessible style for which John Playfair is renowned, and together with Greg Bancroft, an expert in infectious diseases, Infection and Immunity explains how our immune system defends us.The authors describe the main causes of infection that our bodies have to battle against - from bacteria to viruses, fungi to protozoa - and explains the intricate and fascinating ways in which we respond, from detection of potentially dangerous organisms to their ultimate elimination - sometimes, unfortunately, suffering new pathological symptoms in the process. Presenting a fully-rounded, well-balanced overview of the field, the book also explains how diseases spread, and what measures we can take to control this spread - from vaccination to increasing awareness through public health initiatives. With examples of infectious diseases from across the world, Infection and Immunity is the ideal text for biomedical science, bioscience, and microbiology students who need to understand the basics of what causes infection, and how our immune systems respond.

Nutrition, Immunity, and Infection
Both nutrition deficiency and overnutrition can have a significant effect on the risk of infection.Nutrition, Immunity, and Infection focuses on the influence of diet on the immune system and how altering one’s diet helps prevent and treat infections and chronic diseases.This book reviews basic immunology and discusses changes in immune function throughout the life course.It features comprehensive chapters on obesity and the role of immune cells in adipose tissue; undernutrition and malnutrition; infant immune maturation; pre- and probiotics; mechanisms of immune regulation by various vitamins and minerals; nutrition and the aging immune system; nutrition interactions with environmental stress; and immunity in the global health arena. Nutrition, Immunity, and Infection describes the various roles of nutrients and other food constituents on immune function, host defense, and resistance to infection.It describes the impact of infection on nutritional status through a translational approach.Chapters bring together molecular, cellular, and experimental studies alongside human trials so that readers can assess both the evidence for the effects of the food component being discussed and the mechanisms underlying those effects.The impact of specific conditions including obesity, anorexia nervosa, and HIV infection is also considered.Chapter authors are experts in nutrition, immunity, and infection from all around the globe, including Europe, Australia, Brazil, India, and the United States.This book is a valuable resource for nutrition scientists, food scientists, dietitians, health practitioners, and students interested in nutrition and immunity.

Immunology of HIV Infection
It is now 10 years since the first AIDS cases were reported in the USA.In that relatively short period of time, study of the disease has moved from the level of early clinical description to exhaustive and extensive laboratory characterization of the human immunodeficiency virus (HIV), the immune responses directed towards it and reasons for their failure.This volume provides contributions from clinical and basic scientists who are actively involved in research in a number of areas of current interest and controversy.Further progress in the clinical management of the HIV-infected patient will undoubtedly build on the basic knowledge about HIV and its modes of pathogenesis.The intimate relationship between HIV and the human immune system provides observations and questions that are relevant to viral immunopathogenesis in general.In the first chapter the clinical features of HIV immunodeficiency are re viewed, and aspects of its changing face are discussed.Dr Tersmette then presents evidence for changing viral characteristics at different stages of the disease.This view of close competition for ascendancy between HIV and the host immune response raises questions about current approaches to therapy.
