Abstract

If one sets out to compare national statistics on mortality, morbidity and health care generally in Canada and the USA in the decade from 1964 to 1974, the result is a set of tables and charts about three times the size of the set in this collection. What we have here is a subset selected for its representativeness, inherent interest and moderate cost. The total story will be told in the larger work from which the material here is drawn. The tree diagram on the very last page of this report will give you a rough idea of the scope of the larger work. If occasionally it looks as if tables have been taken out of contexts in which explanatory details and source materials should be included, that is because that is exactly what has happened. I have fairly rapidly put together a summary report of my current research.
