<br/><br/> This book provides ample knowledge and better understanding of Streptococcus pyogenes and their super antigens. Many illustrations make this a highly informative book. This book elucidates briefly Streptococcus pyogenes as a strict human pathogen possessing an array of virulence factors. These help in evading host immune responses such as by the activation of non-specific T-cell subpopulations by producing super antigens. This book mainly focuses on streptococcal super antigens and explains how they are different from conventional antigens. Moreover, it elaborates those diseases in which super antigens are actively involved. Useful aspects of super antigens and different therapeutic interventions to eradicate super antigens induced diseased are also discussed
