Despite rapidly increasing interest in developmental immunotoxicology, there is not yet a textbook focused on this hot area of research. Developmental Immunotoxicology fills the void with overviews of immune system development in experimental animal and human models, and discusses the complex issues related to the evolution of developmental immunology and risk assessment. This text describes... Read more

Biography
Steven D. Holladay
"This book is the first to consider developmental immunotoxicology … an extremely important contribution to the toxicology literature. … [It] is also timely and provides a treatment of a major current scientific and regulatory issue … a text of high educational and reference value to toxicologists at all levels and across numerous disciplines. … [It] will undoubtedly be influential, as both science and regulatory risk assessment uncover the scale of a potential major human health problem."
