The human body is an amazingly well-functioning machine. It is able to defend itself daily against external pathogens and to strengthen those defenses over the years. Given the importance of this topic, especially in the field of health, we have put together a compendium of immunology books in PDF format that will bring you up to date on what you need to know.
The human immune system is very complex. It can be divided into the innate immune system (first line of defense, less evolved) and the adaptive immune system (capable of generating specific responses). Both work together to defend the body. All this and much more can be expanded with our selection of immunology books in PDF format.
Immunology can thus be defined as the study of the immune system. That is, how the body protects and defends itself against microorganisms such as viruses, fungi, bacteria and protozoa, as well as some parasites.
Immunology is a branch of biology and has been in constant evolution since its beginnings, which are documented in Athens, when it was discovered, during the plague that struck that city, that only people who had already been affected by the disease could care for the sick without catching it a second time. This was recorded in a document written by Thucydides.
That would be the basis of immunizations. The Arabs and the Chinese had also tested this process by inoculating children with smallpox, the process was called variolation. In the following centuries, this process became more sophisticated, with bacteriologist Louis Pasteur playing an important role.
Today we enjoy highly effective immunization processes, through a vaccination scheme that has saved billions of lives over time.
