This 1996 volume reviewed advances in the field of human tumour
immunology, particularly in relation to the potential for immune
intervention in preventing or treating tumours. The editors and
contributors, all prominent workers in the field, survey advances
in the understanding of the relationship between the cancer cell
and the immune response at the time of publication. Chapters review
in depth the function of immune surveillance and mechanisms of
tumour immunity, the role of T lymphocytes and oncogenes in the
immune response to cancer, and the potential for immunotherapy of
cancer. Areas of tumour immunology that were new at the time of
this book's publication are presented, including progress in the
development of tumour vaccines with particular reference to
melanoma. The volumes in this series are intended for a wide
audience of clinicians and researchers with an interest in the
applications of biomedical science to the understanding and
management of cancer.
