The limits of the self [electronic resource] : immunology and biological identity / Thomas Pradeu and Elizabeth Vitanza. Pradeu, Thomas. Immune system. Immunology Philosophy. Self (Philosophy) QR181 .P64 2012 616.079 23 Includes bibliographical references and index. Description based on online resource; title from PDF title page (viewed on Apr. 19, 2012).

Thomas Pradeu argues that this theory is inadequate, because immune responses to self constituents and immune tolerance of foreign entities are the rule, not the exception.
