  Immunology is the branch of biomedical science that focuses on the study of the immune system, its functions, and the role it plays in protecting the body from pathogens and other harmful invaders. It encompasses the recognition of foreign molecules and the activation of mechanisms to neutralize or eliminate these threats, while maintaining tolerance to self-tissues. Immunology is an evolving field that links various disciplines, including microbiology, genetics, and molecular biology, in understanding how the body defends itself against diseases. 
  The immune system is a complex network of cells, proteins, and organs that work together to provide protection against infections and malignancies. It is composed of two major arms: innate and adaptive immunity. Innate immunity is the first line of defense, offering a rapid but non-specific response to a wide range of pathogens. In contrast, adaptive immunity is more specialized, offering a delayed but highly specific response to pathogens, with the ability to "remember" previous encounters and respond more effectively in the future. 
  Historically, the field of immunology has been shaped by significant discoveries that have helped define the immune system's components and their roles. The work of pioneers such as Louis Pasteur, Edward Jenner, and Robert Koch laid the foundation for our understanding of immunity, particularly in relation to vaccines and infectious diseases. As research advanced, immunology expanded into areas like autoimmunity, immunodeficiencies, and cancer immunology, offering new insights into disease mechanisms and therapeutic strategies.

  Why We Run - A Natural History

  When Bernd Heinrich decided to write a memoir of his ultramarathon running experience he realized that the preparation for the race was as important, if not more so, than the race itself. Considering the physiology and motivation of running from a scientific point of view, he wondered what he could learn from other animals. 
   
   
   
  In Why We Run, Heinrich considers the flight endurance of birds, the antelope's running prowess and limitations, and the ultra-endurance of camels to understand how human physiology can or cannot replicate these adaptations. With his characteristic blend of scientific inquiry and philosophical musings, Heinrich offers an original and provocative work combining the rigors of science with the passion of running.

  Science and Health: Knowledge and Medicine in Ancient Rome (3 in 1) explores the intellectual and spiritual forces that shaped Roman civilization, from its groundbreaking scientific ideas to its religious beliefs and the formidable enemies it battled across centuries. 
  In Roman Medicine and Science, uncover the practical and philosophical roots of Roman knowledge—how doctors, engineers, and scholars applied Greek theory, astrology, and firsthand experience to treat the sick, build aqueducts, and study the stars. Roman Religion and Mythology dives into the gods, rituals, and sacred practices that infused daily life with divine meaning and political power. From Jupiter to household spirits, religion in Rome was deeply entwined with science, healing, and war. The Roman Empire and Their Enemies offers a dynamic look at Rome’s greatest rivals—Persians, Carthaginians, Germanic tribes, and more—examining how these conflicts influenced Rome’s scientific developments, medical needs, and mythic self-image. 
  Together, these three books reveal how Romans understood the world—through logic and legend, reason and ritual. Ideal for readers fascinated by ancient science, belief systems, and military history, this volume reveals how Rome's view of knowledge shaped its rise—and echoed through its fall.
