Influenza

In the middle of a crisis, it's difficult to find reasoned thought, careful reflection, scientific data. I'm happy I was able to find this book, published just two years ago, but far enough away from the current pandemic to feel ominously prescient.

It is comforting to be able to read a history of the flu in the world, to hear facts and data from past pandemics, to look at research, to see that politics and economics have always had a bearing on actions taken.
