The report presents the data by subject (Part A) and by country (Part B). Part C contains technical notes concerning methods and data sources. This volume adds the large number of Latin American and Caribbean countries with populations of less than 3 million that were excluded from the WDR because of space constraints. It also adds data from Canada and the United States for completeness and comparison.Updates are presented for eight statistics: gross national product (GNP), GNP per capita, population, population growth rate, total fertility, life expectancy at birth, infant mortality rate, and maternal mortality rate. Newly revised figures for items related to health expenditure have made possible an extensive update of earlier statistics and the addition of more countries to one of the country tables.

This book examines issues concerning how developing countries will have to prepare for demographic and epidemiologic change. Much of the current literature focuses on the prevalence of specific diseases and their economic consequences, but a need exists to consider the consequences of the epidemiological transition: the change in mortality patterns from infectious and parasitic diseases to chronic and degenerative ones. Among the topics covered are the association between the health of children and adults, the strong orientation of many international health organizations toward infant and child health, and how the public and private sectors will need to address and confront the large-scale shifts in disease and demographic characteristics of populations in developing countries.

This book provides an overview of the health of developing nations in the early twenty-first century. The basic assumption is that the health of a population is not independent of broader demographic trends, and does follow the health transition model. The coverage is broad, ranging from health transition in developing countries, to the health of women, to an analysis of morbidity. Population health is an essential component of human and social development. As both a means and an end of development, health lies at the heart of underdevelopment, and ranks first on the list of international priorities. The WHO slogan ‘Health for all in 2000’ reflects the spirit of a more general movement in favor of health promotion throughout the world. But the developing world is far from reaching this aim. The health of populations has improved in developing regions but there are still deep inequalities, and serious problems remain, especially in Sub-Saharan Africa. After reviewing the core concepts of population health, the book examines health transition in developing countries, a process that has resulted in a double burden of diseases. A discussion of mortality in developing countries serves to highlight the high rates of child mortality in these regions. The book devotes a full chapter to women’s health, and its chapter-length analysis of morbidity highlights the double burden weighing down developing populations and concludes with an analysis of health systems in developing countries.

Nineteen papers from the November, 1997 symposium examine three major issues in health and mortality: the measurement of mortality and health status, the state of current knowledge about the evolution of mortality and health in various economies, and the analysis of risk factors associated with specific behaviors that may account for growing proportions of death.
