Death at the Opposite Ends of the Eurasian Continent - Mortality Trends in Taiwan and the Netherlands

"Historical demographers since Malthus have characterized the West-European and Chinese demographic regimes as systems under low and high pressure, respectively. This volume examines the operation of the positive check at the two ends of the Eurasian continent by taking the Netherlands and Taiwan as representatives of the West-European and Chinese mortality regimes"--P. [4] of cover.
