The articles in the Russian Wikipedia are surprisingly good. In general they
have content similar but not identical to the English Wikipedia, which makes
them particularly useful reading material. Look for example at:
http://ru.wikipedia.org/wiki/%D0%98%D0%BC%D0%BC%D1%83%D0%BD%D0%BD%D0%B0%D1%8
F_%D1%81%D0%B8%D1%81%D1%82%D0%B5%D0%BC%D0%B0
Alternatively:
Look at http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Immune_system
and then hit the link Russkij in the left-hand margin.

Then follow all the links you see printed in blue within the text.
