Product Description
Since 1900, the average American life expectancy has risen thirty years. Many diseases have been conquered in the past century, and medical knowledge has increased exponentially. But modern life has new health problems of its own. This volume of the Gallup Major Trends & Events: The Pulse of Our Nation 1900 to the Present series explores the major health issues of both yesterday and today, including dreaded diseases from tuberculosis to AIDS, medical breakthroughs, cigarette addiction, euthanasia and the "right to die", bio-terrorism, and the affordability of health care.
