_Immunology, Volume 1: Immunotoxicology, Immunopathology, and
Immunotherapy_ discusses the investment of time, effort and finance
that go into making progress in preventing and/or curing serious
diseases by using standard treatments (chemotherapy, radiotherapy,
surgery, and hormone therapy). The use of these treatments is
accompanied by unavoidable, devastating side effects. At the cost of
being repetitious, it has to be emphasized that an improved
understanding of the immune system, avoidance of unhealthy habits
(e.g., smoking, intake of alcohol, perpetual stress, and lack of
exercise) and early detection (using biomarkers) are the only three
friends we have to at least delay the onset of serious diseases.
