Description
The International Network for Research in the Interpretation of Healthy Life Expectancy Data held its first meeting in Quebec in September 1989. This book gathers together and confronts the various studies devoted to disability-free expectancy carried out since 1988 and summarized the earlier studies presented and discussed at the Quebec meeting. Divided into three parts it deals with: the initial studies (1964-1976); the empirical approach of the early 80s (1979-1983); and the beginning of the scientific approach (1983-1987) which is expended by current research.
