From the Preface: This volume deals with chemical and molecular aspects of inflammatory responses that may be induced by immunologic or nonimmunologic means. Certain purely immunologic factors such as Interleukin 2 are included because they can potentiate immune responses that have important inflammatory consequences...We have attempted to stress those mediators and those reactions that appear to play a critical role in tissue injury and repair, as well as protection against disease processes.
