World Health Databook 2009/2010 (3rd edition)

摘要

Words and pictures are not the only means to tell a story: numbers can be equally powerful. In this 3rd edition of its World Health Databook, Euromonitor draws together statistical data from around the world to present a fascinating portrait of world healthcare from 2001 to 2008.rnThe introduction includes a currency converter and concise definitions of terms used throughout the guide, including life expectancy at birth, in-patient beds, and hospital admissions. The introduction also clearly states the sources and methodologies used to compile the guide, which include national statistical offices; and European and international organizations.
