Publisher's Synopsis
This book describes the cells that participate in the inflammatory reaction, how they divide, differentiate, mature and die, and the role they play in the inflammatory reaction. Individual cell populations are considered in detail, including mast cells, and regenerating and repair are also reviewed. The volume provides an up-to-date account of neutrophils, T and B lymphocytes, monocytes and macrophages and dendritic lymphocytes, together with an account of granulomas. The book is unique in providing so much information for those interested in the dynamics of inflammation.
