A Matter of Life and Death: Contemporary Aboriginal Mortality

This book presents the proceedings of a workshop held in 1989 by the National Centre for Epidemiology and Population Health, focusing on contemporary Aboriginal mortality in Australia. It examines the causes and effects of mortality rates among Aboriginal Australians, highlighting the significant disparity in life expectancy compared to the general Australian population. The discussions aim to shed light on the health challenges faced by Indigenous communities and explore potential strategies to address these issues.
