Beskrivning

A critical review of the classic, as wells as most recent-and quite seminal-findings concerning the phenotypic and molecular characteristics of both fetal and neonatal B and T cells, the cells that mediate antibody and cellular immune responses in newborns and infants.

Recensioner i media

"...an excellent reference reference for both reviewing the existing literature and for updating our current knowledge and understanding of how the immune system develops during foetal and neonatal life. This text is by far the most comprehensive review to date on neonatal immunity and I strongly recommend it to anyone with interest in the field." -Australian Veterinary Journal "...an excellent source of both old and cutting-edge information on neonatal immunity." - New England Journal of Medicine
