This Bernan Press title fills the gap created when the National Center for Health Statistics ceased publication of its Vital Statistics compendia in 1992. This edition includes both current and historical statistics and brings together a comprehensive collection of birth, mortality, and health data into a single volume.
The third edition includes an expanded health section with many more tables on health insurance and health expenditures. In addition, there are several new figures on a variety of topics including teenage pregnancy, diabetes, and drug use.
Other volumes in the U.S. DataBook Series™ include, Business Statistics of the United States, Handbook of U.S. Labor Statistics, and State Profiles.
