  Immunopharmacology is that area of biology where immunology, pathology and pharmacology overlap. It concerns the pharmacological approach to the interaction between the host and the invading disease.

It covers the subject in depth and will be useful to both undergraduates and clinicians. This third edition contains completely new sections on angiogenesis, acute-phase protein and future prospects in immunopharmacolbgy.
