Recensione:

'The authors gently guide you into the topic with a potted historical overview and then reacquaint you with basic immunology in a way that you wish you had been taught as an undergraduate ... In all the book was a pleasure to review. It answered many a burning question.' Journal of the Royal Society of Medicine

'... an excellent resource book that has the potential to become the go to reference text for lung transplantation. It is a 'must have' for all transplant pulmonologists, coordinators and surgeons and a 'nice to have' for all other pulmonologists, transplant psychiatrists and social workers.' Journal of Transplant Coordination
