Mucosal Vaccines

This comprehensive, authoritative treatise covers all aspects of mucosal vaccines including their development, mechanisms of action, molecular/cellular aspects, and practical applications. The contributing authors and editors of this one-of-a-kind book are very well known in their respective fields. Mucosal Vaccines is organized in a unique format in which basic, clinical, and practical aspects of the mucosal immune system for vaccine development are described and discussed. This project is endorsed by the Society for Mucosal Immunology.

Provides the latest views on mucosal vaccinesApplies basic principles to the development of new vaccinesLinks basic, clinical, and practical aspects of mucosal vaccines to different infectious diseasesUnique and user-friendly organization
