It includes a decline in the host's capacity to respond to infections and the deterioration of the development of long-term immune memory. It is a major cause of increased frequency of morbidity and mortality among older adults. It may result due to unavoidable exposure to a wide variety of antigens, including virus and bacteria.

It aims to shed light on some of the unexplored aspects of the immunology of aging and the recent researches in the subject. The extensive content of this book provides the readers with a thorough understanding of the subject.
