Key features:* Analysis of morbidity and treatment of data, including time trends, in England and Wales. Statistics from general practice provide a powerful source of information about public health issues, including disease prevalence and the demand for health care. This report contains data not available elsewhere in such a comprehensive form. It should therefore, be invaluable to those involved in service planning, assessing health needs and other public health research.
