Textbook of Influenza (Hardcover, illustrated edition)

The Textbook of Influenza will provide a comprehensive reference on the subject of influenza, but with a clinical perspective. The book will present sufficient detail on the genetic and molecular functions of the virus to be relevant to research scientists, and enough epidemiological material to interest the public health professionals. However, a significant proportion of the text will concentrate on the clinical aspects of the disease. Particular attention will be paid to the future of flu treatments, including a detailed look at vaccine development. With the Editors' expertise spanning both clinical and scientific spheres, the book will have a wide target audience. No such publication currently exists and with its worldwide perspective on the problem of influenza and its international authorship, it is anticipated that this book will have a wide distribution.
