Springer-Verlag, Berlin, Heidelberg, 2002, 192 pp. $95.00, ISBN: 3-540-43560-3Summary: With more than 150 original articles and more than a dozen reviews having been published in 2002 on the Toll-like receptor (TLR) family, the book Toll-like Receptor Family Members and Their Ligands provides a timely overview of the role of TLRs in innate immunity. The book provides chapters on the receptors, their ligands, and the signaling cascades activated.
