Nanomedicine in Cancer Immunotherapy bridges the two disciplines of nanotechnology and immunology, summarizing the latest research into novel cancer treatments, often personalized to the patient. The book covers a wide range of nanomaterial types for use in cancer immunotherapy, including hydrogel, lipid, exosome, gold and peptide nanoparticles. The preparation, application, pros and cons of each nanomaterial class is reviewed, helping the reader understand the potential for each to tailor their own selections. Nanovaccines are also covered, along with a clinical evaluation and market analysis of nanomedicines for immunotherapy, offering an important clinical and commercial overview of this rapidly developing field.This book is an interesting reference for those working in the fields of nanotechnology, immunology, and cancer therapeutics, as well as clinicians with an interest in novel nano-based cancer treatments.

In 2020 we lost Noel Rose, co-editor of the classic Infection and Autoimmunity. To honor and respect his work, a group of experts in the field have taken the initiative to make this book perpetual. The third edition of Infection and Autoimmunity updates all the recent and leading papers on infection and autoimmunity, in addition to a dedicated section on to the correlation between SARS-CoV-2 infection and autoimmunity. From the very beginning of the COVID-19 pandemic, numerous papers have been published, including studies conducted by the editors and authors of the book, on COVID-19 and autoimmunity, and therefore this knowledge has been incorporated into this new edition. The addition and extended coverage on SARS-CoV-2/COVID-19 and autoimmunity are pivotal for the third edition of the book due to the COVID-19 pandemic. Medical students and practitioners, as well as academic staff in medical schools globally, are enthusiastic in searching for better understanding of the correlation between infection and autoimmunity in general, and the long-term effects of SARS-CoV-2 and COVID-19 on the immunce system in particular, especially in terms of autoimmunity related to the virus.
