Summary measures of population health are "measures that combine information on mortality and non-fatal health outcomes." This explores their use in various public health settings, looking at issues of ethics, in addition to technological and methodological issues. The framework adopted by the World Health Organization for their use is described and separate sections review measures of health expectancies and health gaps. Other important topics include the roles of health state valuation and social value choices. Annotation (c) Book News, Inc., Portland, OR (booknews.com)
