Features: This textbook is an approved 21st Century Curriculum Textbook by the Ministry of Education of China. It was co-authored by immunology teachers from five medical schools in China, based on their extensive teaching experience and in response to the current state of medical undergraduate education in domestic higher medical institutions. The textbook has undergone significant improvements in chapter design, content organization and selection, integration of text and illustrations, layout design, and the combination of basic and clinical knowledge. These enhancements aim to facilitate both teaching and learning, thereby improving the quality of undergraduate immunology education. The book is divided into five parts: Introduction to Medical Immunology, Immunomolecules and Immunocytes, Immune Responses and Regulation, Immunopathology, and Immunological Applications. Each chapter highlights its core content and main themes, with clear, concise, and fluent writing. It covers both fundamental ("three basics") knowledge and appropriate modern advancements in immunology. Several appendices and an index are added at the end of the book. Most illustrations are accompanied by concise captions.
