volume of literature on dendritic cells doubling every year, it is almost impossible to keep up. This book provides
the most up-to-date synthesis of the literature, written by the very best authors. It is essential reading for
any scientist working in immunology, cell biology, infectious diseases, cancer, transplantation, genetic engineering,
or the pharmaceutical/biotechnology industry.
