As a seasoned (not old) editor, he worked with practically all the contributors and this enables to achieve the goals of the book. This manual to SLE combines basic science with clinical science to provide a translational treatment of the disease. Systemic Lupus Erythematosus, a Manual, is a useful reference for specialists in the diagnosis and management of patients with SLE, a tool for measurement of clinical activity for pharmaceutical development and basic research of the disease and a reference work for hospital libraries.

This new edition includes new chapters on:

        Microbiota and lupus by Dr. Greg Silverman- a pioneer on this topic

      • Innate immune cells and lupus
      • Monogenic lupus
