Recensione:

"Widely regarded as The Bible for vaccinologists. the book remains the work of reference that every person working in the field of vaccines and those with an interest in infectious diseases should have."

The Lancet: Infectious Diseases, June 2008

"For anyone wishing to know everything important about existing vaccines, this book provides an indispensable source of authoritative information."

Immunology News, February 2009

"The new foreword by Bill Gates emphasizes the importance of vaccines and the value of this book.  This is the leading reference that covers all aspects of vaccinology.  There are no comparable books available.  In the rapidly evolving field of vaccinology, this new edition is essential."
