I bought this book as a reference for a summer research project I did. I read through many of its chapters out of need for background for the project and because of the way it is written, I ended up reading most of it out of interest in the subject. The book is very well-written, informative, and interesting. There are plenty of images and figures that help contribute to the learning experience.
There is a lot of information covered in the book, and so in many ways, it is what I mention in the title - a tome of immunology just like "Molecular Biology of The Cell" by Alberts et al is a tome of cell biology. A lot of extras they include (like the appendix that lists all of the CD-designation proteins and etc.) help reinforce the fact that this book will make as excellent a reference book as it probably is a textbook for any immunology class.
By far one of the best purchases I've ever made, and it will remain on my reference shelf for years to come.
Very Informative and Well Written May 8, 2008

As an undergraduate studying molecular biology, I had little experience in the field of Immunology when I signed up to take a course in it. As I progressed through the course, I realized why my professor had chosen to use this book as the class text. This textbook is very well written, well illustrated, efficiently organized, and the study guides and self-tests at the end of each chapter are great study tools. I recommend this book to anyone taking a course in Immunology for the first time. If a person is familiar with immunology and is looking for a reference book, I would suggest "Fundamental Immunology" Instead.
Good explanations April 13, 2008

In med school we are expected to read through and digest the most of this book in less than two week. I anticipated a grueling track through dense text, a la Janeway's Immunology. But surprisingly, I found the writing fluent and flowed well and explanations in this book to be clear and understandable. While it wasn't a breeze, the experience of learning immunology from this book was better than I expected. The graphics used in the books are also pretty well done.
Best purchase ever! March 9, 2008
