This book examines the remarkable decline of mortality in Europe
which began in the 19th century and continued in an uninterrupted
fashion, into the early 20th century. During this period there was
almost a simultaneous decline in both fertility and mortality in
Europe which has long since fascinated historians and demographers.
Though transition of fertility is now understood, the same cannot
be said for mortality, despite its importance. The transition of
mortality between 1870 and 1920 had profound effects for European
and American societies. This volume brings to light the different
positions held by scholars on such strategic issues as nutrition,
income levels and living standards, public health, social
organization, and scientific advances. This study will be of
particular interest to demographers, social and economic
historians, epidemiologists, and postgraduate and advanced
undergraduate students of these subjects.
