The Immune Mystery

Mostly an autobiography. The writer has a new theoretical treatment for rheumatoid arthritis and details her quest to come up with it. The book will be of interest to RA patients but, as somebody with a so-called autoimmune disease, I find little of interest here. The REAL puzzle of autoimmunity is why doctors accept the premise so willingly, instead of admitting they don't understand what is happening, and in the process, demonize the patient's immune response.
