      abstract = {Biologics have revolutionized the treatment of autoimmune  diseases due to their efficacy, speed of onset, and  tolerability. The development of new agents and expanded  use of existing agents continues to be a highly active area  of investigation among rheumatic diseases, with a multitude  of innovative therapeutic strategies in various stages of  development. Although the story of treatments continues  rapidly, therapeutic research in some conditions is  hindered by the rarity of the disease, variation in  phenotype, and concerns about toxicity. This fast-paced  development of therapeutics,necessitates immediate  evaluation of individual biologic agents and their best use  in the new treatment regimens. This book provides an  inclusive approach with the existing evidence concerning  effectiveness and implications on the usage of biologics in  treating various rheumatologic disorders. It also covers  the evidence behind the rational use of these agents in  varied autoimmune diseases. This manual also offers a  complete overview of the existing & futuristic biologic  treatments, and draws recommendations on how to standardize  the most suitable regimen for a specific patient in the  context of current guidelines. The handbook of Biologics in  Rheumatology serves as a present and concise compendium to  the modern therapeutic developments in the field. This book  is likely to benefit clinicians, residents, fellow and  other healthcare workers dealing with rheumatological  disorders, and also hard-core Rheumatologists, who are  looking for a quick recap of Biologics of their interest.},
