As the number of asthma and immunodeficiency cases continues to rise, thorough knowledge of immunologic processes is becoming increasingly important. Despite the seemingly small number of chapters, each chapter provides comprehensive coverage of all the topics necessary to pass the allergy-clinical immunology boards in the easy-to-use Secrets format. Chapters include epidemiology, pathophysiology, asthma, sinusitis, urticaria/angioedema, atopic/contact dermatitis, anaphylaxis, food allergy/ intolerance, insect allergy, drug allergy, immunodeficiency, and systemic mast cell disease.
