This book represents a cutting-edge contribution giving an
all-around perspective of eco-immunology today. Beside questions of
the utmost importance for the whole community of immunologists,
e.g, the intrinsic limits of immunological experiments performed at
the bench on a limited number of selected models, the book covers
several other facets of the eco-immunological approach, including
host-parasite interactions, human aging and population immunology.
Throughout the book the importance of population dynamics and
evolutionary diversification of immune systems is frequently
recalled, and makes the reader aware of the basic similarities and
differences existing between humans and the models adopted for
studying human immune system. The evidenced differences have been
recently challenging the reliability of several established animal
models and in the book it is discussed for the first time in
analytical terms whether mice are reliable models of human
inflammatory disorders.
