Abstract "Clinical Immunology and Serology: A Laboratory Perspective is designed to meet the needs of medical laboratory science students on both the 2- and 4-year levels. It uniquely combines practical information about laboratory testing with a discussion of the theory behind the testing and the diseases for which the tests are used. For practicing laboratorians and other health professionals, the book may serve as a valuable reference about new developments in the field of immunology"-- Provided by publisher
