Atlas of Immunology, Second Edition

Rating:
Summary: Atlas of immunology
Review: Eu gostei muito do livro adquirido, o conteúdo de grande clareza e manuseio, só não o coloco como 4 estrelas por ser preto e branco não adequado para um livro que leva o nome de ATLAS e também pela qualidade do papel usado na impressão o qual poderia ser de melhor qualidade.

Summary: Not worth it... go and look for Janeway's
Review: I agree that the best part of this book is the cover. It is not only very expensive, but also the quality is very poor. It has some useful information, but not enough. If you want a GREAT Immunology Book, go and buy Charles Janeway's "Immunobiology: The Immune System in Health and Disease". Don't be tricked like me and end with this book on your shelve, and it is just occupying space. Trust me, not worth it!

Summary: The cover is the best part
Review: This book is dissapointing. While this book does contain a wealth of information on immunology, this is more like a dictionnary than an atlas. The "1000 illustrations" well reproduced black and white illustrations, but they are not very well done or helpfull. There are a few black and white photographs, but absolutely no color in the whole book (other than the cover, which probably is the best part of this book). I do not recommend this book.

I recommend the Atlas of Allergic Diseases, by Lieberman and Blaiss. Excellent diagrams and pictures (all color!).
