Review # 1 was written on 2008-10-28 00:00:00 Susan De Beer Very easy, quick read on factors that have led to a global increase in life expectancy (which is shared, actually, even by most poorer parts of the world, albeit with different living standards). Still, the thematic organization of the book made little sense, considering the sheer amount of overlap. He has separate chapters on public health and medicine, along with other factors like housing, wealth, and literacy, all of which discuss diseases in different capacities. A chronological focus or regional focus would have been a better book, in my estimation.

Review # 2 was written on 2010-02-22 00:00:00 Michael Matthews The information in this book is very important. Unfortunately the author gets bogged down in details like the pros and cons of various names for the increase in life expectancy. Better to read something by one of the primary thinkers on the topic, like The Role Of Medicine: Dream, Mirage, Or Nemesis?
