PREFACE

Lewis Thomas has suggested that "Perhaps the inflammatory reaction should be regarded as a defense of an individual against all the rest of nature, symbolizing his individuality and announcing his existence as an entity." Provision of these symbols and announcements is the task of various mediators of inflammation and this volume has been designed to present our current understanding of their biochemistry, cellular origins, pharmacology, and role in pathology. Unlike other volumes of collected papers, this book did not result from a specific conference or symposium at which each contributor presented his own, narrowly framed research experience. Rather, each of the chapters represents, in the form of a general review, a summary of our knowledge of the mediators and the mecha­nisms by which they are released to launch the inflammatory response. Much effort has been taken to insure that the often conflicting terminology in this field is defmed in detail: many synonyms (e.g., of the properdin system or the alternate pathway of complement activation) have been repeatedly presented, in order to avoid confusion. Although each of the contributors is actively engaged in the field of inflammation, few text figures or tables of ongoing research have been included; the overall aim was to provide a volume readily accessible to workers in other areas as well as to the general reader.

It can now be appreciated that the study of inflammation and its mediators has passed from the purely descriptive to the soundly quantitative level of analYSis, and it is hoped that this compact volume will conveniently bring the results of this effort to the attention of biolOgists, biochemists, immunolOgists, pathologists, and clinicians. Scrutiny of the chapters will indicate that they represent views of inflammation currently held in New York, Boston, Hartford, Kansas City, Baltimore, Richmond, and La Jolla; the editor would especially like to thank Drs. Charles G. Cochrane and K. Frank Austen for suggestions as to their contents.

This volume was prepared during tenure by the editor of a Guggenheim
