Customer Reviews from Amazon :

Great book for class
I'm taking my immunology class this semester and the professor changed the book to this one last min and it came in on time from amazon so I could start my class

The bible of Immunology

I have six of the seven editions of the Kuby Immunology. It remains the best text book for budding immunologists for both undergrad and graduate level. It is especially useful for those of us working immunologists that find it difficult to keep pace with how rapidly our science is expanding in our level of understanding immunity. With advancements in molecular biology, we are constantly needing to review how we understand the immune system. Kuby is no longer just for undergrads. It also caters nicely for graduates and post-grads as well as it brings in the latest knowledge of immunology in a concise accessible manner for those of us applied immunologists.

A very well organized and highly informative book on immunology

Although a highly detailed book and the information is challenging for the memory, this book is written in a very comprehensible way and has all that a resident/specialist needs to know about immunology. Too much complicated for medical students or USMLE exams!
