Janeway's Immunobiology is a textbook that introduces the immune system in all its aspects to undergraduates, and also provides a treatment of the subject that is comprehensive enough to be useful to graduate students interested in research, and to medical students focused on clinical applications. The Eighth Edition has been thoroughly revised and updated.
Janeway's Immunobiology continues to set the standard for currency and authority with its clear writing style and organization, uniform art program, and scientific accuracy. It presents a consistent point of view throughout—that of the host's interaction with an environment containing many species of potentially harmful microorganisms. The full-color art program is conceptually coherent and illustrates the processes and mechanisms underlying the concepts in the text. The 16 chapters in this readable, accessible textbook are organized and presented in such a way as to help deliver a complete one-semester immunology course, beginning with innate immunity, then moving to adaptive immunity, and ending with applied clinical immunology.Direct download links available for Free Janeway's Immunobiology, 8th Edition (Immunobiology: The Immune System (Janeway)) [Print Replica] [Kindle Edition]

I was heavily reliant on this book for an immunology course I took as an elective, and while I am impressed by the amount of research and effort that went into this textbook, I wasn't impressed by the presentation of the content. Sure, this book is very detailed, and its scientific journal-like diction helped me a lot when it came down to reading scientific literature, but the material was written in a very convoluted way. It seemed like this was meant for a group of students who were already versed in the topic of immunology,somewhat, and not for people who like me were new to the subject. In some chapters the book would begin talking about one system, move on another system and then loop back around to the first system. Chapter divisions were really nice and so were the summaries because it is very hard to skim over this text to review or look for pertinent information. Some information that took 3 pages to explain were was already evident in a preceding diagram, and could have been summarized onto a single page. I definitely learned a lot from reading the book and the illustrations were great, but I felt that getting through a 50 page chapter took a lot of caffeine and will power- that stuff is dense!

This is the required text for my Immunobiology class. As I slogged through the first chapter, which was a very detailed overview of the immune system I hoped that the going would get easier when I got to the chapters on the individual components of the immune system. Second chapter: still very tough going. This book goes into a lot of detail and has some great figures and micrographs that help display the material. The two main problems is that with so much detail it's "hard to see the forest for the trees". The main points are obscured in a flood of details. The other problem is that the authors tend to jump around a lot. Often you read, "we will discuss this later in the chapter" and they jump to another topic. Really kills the flow and makes it tough to keep at it. So at this point I'd say it's taking about one evening to read 10 pages. The 70 page chapter on the innate immune system didn't get read for my next class. In summary, all the information is there, somewhat obscured by a flood of details. Expect to spend a long time grinding through if you're trying to learn the material with this book.
