Deadly Diseases and Epidemics series.
This volume describes the biological structures and research into the evolution of flu strains plus epidemiological issues and efforts in prevention; the final chapter asks: "Is Another Pandemic Lurking among the Flock?" Dense with scientific terminology and processes, the book will appeal to a limited audience. Occasional schematic drawings in addition to archival and current photographs break up the text.
