This book discusses "avoidable deaths"--those caused by potentially fatal diseases which can be cured by modern medical treatment. The authors have collected data on such deaths throughout the European community and presented it in the form of maps and tables. Comparisons are made between
mortality rates in different regions of each country as well as between different countries. The information will be useful for a wide range of ongoing research and further studies.
