The Second International Workshop on Human Leukocyte Differentia-
tion Antigens was held in Boston, September 17-20, 1984. More than
350 people interested in leukocyte differentiation agreed to
exchange reagents and participate in this joint venture. All in
all, in excess of 400 antibodies directed against surface
structures on T lymphocytes, B lymphocytes, and
myeloid-hematopoietic stern cells were characterized. Because of
the enormous quantity of serologic, biochemical, and functional
data, Leuko- cyte Typing II has been divided into three volumes.
These books represent the written results of workshop participants.
They should be helpful to both researchers and clinicians involved
in scientific endeavors dealing with these broad fields of
immunobiology. To those who delve into the various sections of the
volumes, it will become evident that the work speaks for itself. I
am deeply indebted to the section editors, Barton F. Haynes, Volume
1, Human T Lymphocytes, Lee M. Nadler, Volume 2, Human B Lympho-
cytes, and Irwin D. Bernstein, Volume 3, Human Myeloid and Hemato-
poietic Cells for their major contributions in planning, executing,
and summarizing the workshop, as well as council members John
Hansen, Alain Bernard, Laurence Boumsell, Walter Knapp, Andrew
McMichael, Cesar Milstein, and Stuart F. Schlossman. I would also
like to thank the National Institutes of Health, World Health
Organization, and Interna- tional Union of Immunological Societies
for making this meeting possible.
