This book provides the most up-to-date review on new mechanisms and provides exciting insights into how heat shock proteins modulate the hosts' immune response. Written by leaders in the field of heat shock protein immunobiology, the chapters systematically and in a step-wise fashion take the reader through the fascinating sequence of events by which heat shock proteins activate immune responses and provide answers as to its biological significance to the host. From the early stages of binding and receptors-mediated signalling, to new paradigms by which heat shock proteins are released into the circulation, to antigen processing and presentation, and finally to the immune response itself this book is a must read for graduate and postgraduates in the field of Biology (plant and mammal), Biochemistry (pro- and eukaryotic), Immunology, Microbiology, Exercise Medicine, Physiology, Inflammatory diseases, Autoimmunity, Pharmacology and Pathology.

Learn about the most recent theoretical and practical advances in radar signal processing using tools and techniques from compressive sensing. Providing a broad perspective that fully demonstrates the impact of these tools, the accessible and tutorial-like chapters cover topics such as clutter rejection, CFAR detection, adaptive beamforming, random arrays for radar, space-time adaptive processing, and MIMO radar. Each chapter includes coverage of theoretical principles, a detailed review of current knowledge, and discussion of key applications, and also highlights the potential benefits of using compressed sensing algorithms. A unified notation and numerous cross-references between chapters make it easy to explore different topics side by side. Written by leading experts from both academia and industry, this is the ideal text for researchers, graduate students and industry professionals working in signal processing and radar.
