Exploring the immunologic concerns of both large and small animals, Veterinary Immunology,11th Edition, is the complete resource on immunology for veterinary students and practitioners. This comprehensive text features a straightforward presentation of basic immunologic principles along with thorough and timely information on the most significant immunologic diseases and responses seen in domestic animals. More than 500 vibrant images and wealth of clinical examples work to give students a better understanding of complex topics and concepts and how they come in to play during professional practice. This text has been the immunology reference of choice for veterinary students since 1977, and this new edition has been meticulously updated to continue its trend of incorporating the latest advances and topics in the field. Instructors will love the book’s modular format where each chapter can be used to teach a class, just as students will love Tizard’s clear explanations and ability to seamlessly tie the immunologic principles to the disease process and clinical practice.
    • NEW! Completely updated content covers the latest advances and topics in veterinary immunology, including cutting-edge information on drugs for the immune system, antibodies, vaccines, cancer immunology, and much more.
    • NEW! Enhanced ebook version, included with every new print purchase, features flashcards and enhanced animations, plus access to all the text, figures, and references, with the ability to search, customize content, make notes and highlights, and have content read aloud.
    • Comprehensive coverage clearly explains the general principles of immunology and provides information on the most significant immunologic diseases and immunologic responses seen in domestic animals.
    • A wealth of clinical examples show how principles are applied in the clinical setting.
