How can the progress being made in reducing the force of mortality be interpreted in terms of lifesaving? How many times can a person expect to have his or her life saved as a result of this progress? We develop a model to answer these questions and illustrate the results by using mortality rates for the United States in 1900 and 1980 and as projected for 2050. date: 1987-02 date_type: published publisher: Springer-Verlag id_number: 10.2307/2061512 creators_browse_id: 2478 creators_browse_id: 2535 full_text_status: none publication: Demography volume: 24 number: 1 pagerange: 123-135 refereed: TRUE issn: 0070-3370 coversheets_dirty: FALSE fp7_project: no fp7_type: info:eu-repo/semantics/article citation: Vaupel, J. & Yashin, A.
