In 1906, Sir George Newman's 'Infant Mortality: A Social Problem',
one of the most important health studies of the twentieth century,
was published. To commemorate this anniversary, this volume brings
together an interdisciplinary team of leading academics to evaluate
Newman's critical contribution, to review current understandings of
the history of infant and early childhood mortality, especially in
Britain, and to discuss modern approaches to infant health as a
continuing social problem. The volume argues that, even after 100
years of health programmes, scientific advances and medical
interventions, early childhood mortality is still a significant
social problem and it also proposes new ways of defining and
tracking the problem of persistent mortality differentials.
