I concur with the recommendation about Janeway and Travers but I also think 
that Immunology by Roitt et al. (Mosby editors) is very good at the basic 
level (it must be in the 5th edition by now). Once you get well verse at 
this level, you may want to review Advanced Immunology by Male et al. 
(Mosby, 1996) which keeps the same conversational tone but it is a lot more 
advanced. Once you feel confortable with these, you may read anything you
want with full understanding.	
	Good luck and enjoy your studies
