Tauber, Alfred I.
Tauber, Alfred I.
In Immunity, Alfred Tauber Sets Forth A New Theory Of Immunology That Rejects The Common Principle Of Self And Non-self, And The Immune System's Role As A Protector Of The Self From External Threats. Rather Than Serving To Defend An Independent Entity, He Argues, Immunity Participates In A Large, Complex Eco-system Of Porous And Flexible Boundaries. Tauber's New Approach To Immunology Necessitates A New Biology In Which Symbiosis Is The Rule, Not Theexception.
