Both countries have witnessed steady, continuous improvements in public health, disease prevention, and medical care. The contributors compare the impact of disease and mortality on the lives of individuals and families under very different cultural and social conditions. Death at the Opposite Ends of the Eurasian Continent analyzes a variety of factors, including maternal and infant mortality, as well as the accuracy of Taiwan's censuses and death reporting. 410 0$aLife at the extremes ;$vv. 4. 606 $aMortality$zNetherlands 606 $aMortality$zTaiwan 606 $aMortality$zNetherlands$vStatistics 606 $aMortality$zTaiwan$vStatistics 606 $aMortality$xRegional disparities 615 0$aMortality 615 0$aMortality 615 0$aMortality 615 0$aMortality 615 0$aMortality$xRegional disparities. 676 $a304.609492 702 $aEngelen$b Th$g(Theo), 702 $aShepherd$b John Robert 702 $aYang$b Wen-Shan 801 0$bUkCbUP 801 1$bUkCbUP 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910139167303321 996 $aDeath at the opposite ends of the Eurasian continent$92239706 997 $aUNINA
