Fever has always been recognised as the major sign of infectious
disease as well as being associated with other illnesses. The
suggestion of publishing a volume dedicated exclusively to the
subject of fever in the Handbook of Experimental Pharmacology
series was one that greatly appealed to me, and I felt very
honoured when I was invited to edit it. The first ideas about this
volume were conceived in the latter part of 1977 and by the middle
of 1978 the first authors had been approached. As is usual with
such publications, by the time the first manuscripts were beginning
to arrive in the late spring of 1979 there were still a few
chapters for which authors had not yet been found. Finally by the
end of 1981 the volume was complete. Because of the span of time
over which the chapters were written, some refer to more recent
work than others; however, I do not feel that this detracts from
the overall contribution of all the chapters.
