Veterinary immunology

The monograph is based on a successful publication published by our publishing house in 2000. The authors have expanded and updated the text in accordance with the development of new knowledge. However, the original concept was retained. The book summarizes the latest findings in the field in a clear way, emphasizing the specific features of immune reactions in farm and domestic animals. Developmental aspects, comparative immunology, physiological defence functions to interventions that lead to immune system failure and immunopathological processes are highlighted, indicating possibilities for their prevention, diagnosis and treatment. The publication is intended for a wide range of professionals including practising veterinarians and students. For them, the book is designed in such a way that it can also fulfil the function of a teaching text.
