Perspectices in Veterinary Allergy and Clinical Immunology

The purpose of the current book is to review allergic diseases across species and to focus on how these diseases compare to the counterpart in people. The book provides essential, practical information for solving dermatological problems commonly encountered in small animals. Various stressors, including both psychological as well as physiological, have been demonstrated to influence the immune response, presumably through activation of the hypothalamic-pituitary-adrenal axis and sympathetic nervous system.
