Description: "Many diseases that affect the gut are immune mediated. Hence, knowledge of immunology in general - and gut immunology in particular - is essential in order to adequately understand the presentation and clinical features of these disorders. This highly illustrated book unravels the sometimes complex field of immunology, and relates the discipline to over 35 commonly encountered gastroenterological disorders. It is an essential guide for everyone practising in the field of gastroenterology."--BOOK JACKET.
