Beskrivning

Seasonal fluctuations in mortality are a persistent phenomenon across populations. This does, however, not explain why in colder countries the differences between winter and summer mortality are smaller than in countries with warm or moderate climate.

From the reviews: "Roland Rau's monograph on 'Seasonality in Human Mortality' is really welcome. Based on his dissertation, the book comprises two original studies of seasonal mortality, one in the US and the other in Denmark. ... This book is the third volume of the Demographic Research Monographs series published since 2004 by Springer for the Max Planck Institute for Demographic Research. ... It is highly appreciated that the new series is also open to young and promising researchers." (Jean-Marie Robine, European Journal of Population, Vol. 24, 2008)
