Every time we think of inflammation, we generally visualize swollen parts of the body such as joints, arthritic limbs, stiff muscles, etc. We have come to associate these with inflammation and something that affects old people.

Immune explores the incredible arsenal that lives within us - how it knows what to attack and what to defend and how it kills everything from the common cold to the plague bacterium.
