About the Book
Presents a comprehensive review of cell-mediated immunity to viral infection, highlighting aspects relevant to HIV research. Opening chapters discuss antigen processing and presentation, and lymphokine function. Subsequent chapters consider immune responses to individual viruses including: HIV, visn
