The immune system is the body's first line of defense, therefore the understanding how the immune system works - or does not work- against cancer is the primary focus of this book. Additionally, the book provides a comprehensive idea about basic immune system of the body and about tumor immunology. Immune recognition of cancer/tumors as well as mechanism acquired by cancer cells to escape from immune system, has now been well documented in humans. This book is therefore tailor made to cater the needs of undergraduates as well as postgraduates in understanding the complex concepts of tumor cell differentiation/ proliferation and their survival in human body and also offers an insight about cancer immune therapies to treat and retard progression of the disease.
