La estructura general de esta edición de Inmunología es la misma que la de la novena edición, Las secciones 1 y 2 describen el funcionamiento del sistema inmunitario. La sección 3 se ocupa de las respuestas inmunitarias contra los microorganismos patógenos (la función principal del sistema inmunitario), y las secciones 4 a 6 abordan aspectos de inmunología clínica, como las enfermedades autoinmunitarias, la inmunodeficiencia, los trasplantes, la inmunología tumoral y la hipersensibilidad. Todos los capítulos se han actualizado por completo e incluyen numerosos diagramas nuevos. Especial atención merecen los Caps. 17,18,20 y 22 por su profunda actualización en temas relativos a las nuevas vacunas de mRNA, inmunización pasiva, autoinmunidad, nuevos anticuerpos y nuevas terapias celulares y los nuevos descubrimientos a raíz de la epidemia de Covid. Las secciones de razonamiento crítico que siguen a cada capítulo requieren la comprensión del material presentado y de las implicaciones en un entorno de laboratorio o clínico, y sirven como base para el debate en el aula. Otro importante instrumento pedagógico son los resúmenes que recogen los puntos clave de cada capítulo, así como los numerosos esquemas, diagramas y figuras. La nueva edición ofrece contenido adicional online en español a través de la plataforma e-book+. Incluye apartados, tablas y figuras adicionales, así como una colección de 15 videos.
