It is the best concise and up-to-date information on cytokines I know, and probably the source of choice for anybody wanting to collect rapidly the essentials on single effector proteins, their receptors and the way they signal. * Marco Baggiolini, FEBS Letters 369 (1995) *
The simple but broad coverage of a fundamentally important control system makes for an attractive and helpful guide to tomorrow's toxicology. * Anthony Dayan, St. Bartholomew's Medical College, British Toxicology Society Newsletter No. 5, December 1995 *
this is an excellent manual ... Timely and detailed, comprehensive and well illustrated, Guidebook to Cytokines and Their Receptors is an invaluable resource for both the novice and the expert. * Karen Martell and Axel Ullrich, Max-Planck-Institut fur Biochemie, TIBS 21 - June 1996 *
This is a valuable source of reference, allowing one to 'reach for the shelf' and obtain immediate factual information on the cytokine or receptor of interest. * A. Rhodes, British Journal of Biomedical Science, 1995 *
The Guidebook is the most extensive compilation of information currently available on cytokines and the receptors that mediate their biological effect in vivo. Overall, we strongly recommend this volume as a reference text. It is relatively inexpensive and is very broad in its overview of a rapidly developing field. It provides an easily accessible, readily digestible summary of essential information on a class of regulators that are of increasing appreciated importance in basic research and clinical medicine. * Kent T. HayGlass, Julia D. Rempel, Canadian Journal of Allergy and Clinical Immunology, Vol. 1, No. 3, 1996 *
