The study of immunology encompasses a vast and ever-growing body of
information that in some way or other incorporates most areas of
medical biological research. As the body of information in the
medical sciences continues to increase its rate of expansion, one
of the greatest challenges to investigators will be to integrate
this information in a manner that is intellectually fruitful and
productive. Considering the intended scope of this text, we could
not pretend to have gone too far toward achieving such an
integration--and considering the pace of change, in its very best
form a measured approximation of such lofty goals might be the most
we could hope for. Nevertheless, in these pages we have sought to
produce a collection of information that is at once concise and
up-to-date regarding areas where important developments are
impacting on the way we understand the vertebrate immune system. In
addition, although the information is geared toward advanced study,
we have discussed some basic elements and concepts that we hope
make the text a useful resource for both the immunologist and the
nonspecialist. The intention is to provide the researcher,
clinician, or advanced undergraduate student with a brief ov- view
of specific components of the immune system, and to provide a place
from which to begin further detailed study if necessary. To this
end, we made every effort to supply extensive referencing--although
limitations in space prevented exhaustive or complete referencing
in some cases.
