"The Pathology of Influenza" by M.C. Winternitz, Isabel M. Wason, and Frank P. McNamara is a scientific publication written in the early 20th century. This work delves deeply into the pathological aspects of influenza, especially during the epidemic that swept through Europe and the United States following the Great War. It examines various complications and lesions related to the disease, with an emphasis on anatomical changes in the respiratory system and their implications for treatment and understanding of influenza's impact. The opening portion of the book provides a contextual background on the influenza epidemic that occurred between 1918 and subsequent investigations carried out in hospitals, particularly the New Haven Hospital. It discusses the significance and urgency of studying influenza during the epidemic and highlights the observations made by medical professionals concerning the pathology of the disease. The authors aim to present a detailed compilation of findings from post-mortem examinations, emphasizing the lesions found in the respiratory tract, trachea, and lungs, as well as drawing parallels between influenza and other infectious processes. This sets the stage for the comprehensive analysis that follows in the subsequent chapters, contributing to a better understanding of influenza-related pathology.
