Recenzii

From reviews of the earlier Editions:
"At last! ...a book on health demography which draws together these two important and useful disciplines... and provides a central resource for students as well as professionals who need access to demographic methods, measures, and concepts. ... The authors demonstrate the relevance and applicability of demographic principles to health care in a clear, thorough manner." (Applied Demography)
"A well-written, effectively organized work that clarifies the role of health demography." (Choice)
From the reviews of the third edition:
“The core element of this book is the explanation of health demography and its impact as a new discipline on the study of health and healthcare delivery. … The audience is broad, ranging from public health, health policy, and sociology students, to epidemiologists, health planners, and health professionals practicing in the field. … it includes more charts and graphs that represent enhanced knowledge of health demography. It is a nice addition to population health books.” (Carole Ann Kenner, Doody’s Review Service, October, 2012)
