This impressive full-color atlas with over 100 color-coded and accessible maps uniquely presents the geography of mortality in Britain. The book presents data from more than 14 million deaths over a 24-year period in Britain. The maps detail over 100 separate categories of cause of death, including various cancers, suicides, assault by firearms, multiple sclerosis, pneumonia, hypothermia, and Parkinson's disease, and also show how often these occurred in different neighborhoods. Accompanying each map is a detailed description and brief geographical analysis. The number of people who have died due to each cause, the average age of death, and ratio of male to female deaths are listed. Being the first atlas published on this subject for over two decades, The Grim Reaper's Road Map provides a comprehensive overview of the geographical pattern of mortality in Britain.
