TNF-Inhibition in the Treatment of Rheumatoid Arthritis

The introduction of tumor-necrosis-factor-alpha (TNFa) blocking agents is one of the milestones in the therapy of rheumatoid arthritis (RA). Edited by Larry Moreland and Paul Emery, experts in rheumatological disease, TNFa-Inhibition in the Treatment of Rheumatoid Arthritis charts the history and development of the concept of TNFa inhibition. The authors document TNFa from its discovery to its now well-documented clinical applications in the treatment of patients with RA. They compare and contrast practical management issues concerning the use of these agents both in the US and UK/Europe. The book is a practical and accessible source containing the most recent information in this field.
