This book gives insight into the variety of factorsDSbiological, social, economic and culturalDSassociated with these inequalities in mortality rates. Certain of the papers deal with new conceptual approaches and methodological issues, while others cover particular countries in Asia and Latin America, providing overall an important and provoking study of inequality in death.
