The Vaccine Book: New Insights, Approaches and Technologies, Third Edition?provides comprehensive information on the current and future world of vaccines. It reveals the scientific opportunities and potential impact of vaccines, including economic and ethical challenges, problems encountered when producing vaccines, how clinical vaccine trials are designed, and how to introduce vaccines into widespread use. Although vaccines are now available for many diseases, there are still challenges ahead for major diseases such as AIDS, tuberculosis, and malaria. Edited by a new, highly experienced team of editors, the 3rd edition provides new approaches, design, and vaccine platform tools to develop vaccines quicker. This new edition is fully updated and designed for students, researchers, public health offcials, and all others interested in increasing their understanding of vaccines.
