Milestones in Immunology: Based on Collected Papers contains
scientific milestones relating to the history of medicine over the
past two centuries. The book highlights the contributions of
pioneering scientists whose discoveries have paved the way for
researchers working in the field of immunology. As the science of
immunology grew from knowledge that survivors of common infectious
diseases rarely contracted them again, the book uses this as a
central thesis, helping readers understand how the adaptive immune
system aids in defense against pathogens. In addition, the book
covers special fields, such as immunohistochemistry, immunogenetics
and immunopathology. For the past century, immunology has
fascinated and inspired some of the greatest scientists of our
time. Numerous Nobel Prizes have been awarded for fundamental
discoveries in immunology, from Paul Ehrlich' work on antibodies
(1908) to the studies of Zinkernagel and Doherty (1986) elucidating
mechanisms of cell-mediated immunity.
