Horrendous Death, Health, and Well-beingDaniel Leviton Taylor & Francis, 1991 - 366 pages The theme of this book is that a host of causes of death are fashioned by people, sometimes intentionally and sometimes unintentionally. It argues that horrendous death is the greatest public health problem of the 20th century and the greatest threat to the future, surpassing AIDS and natural disasters. However, because horrendous deaths are caused by man, they can be eliminated by man if collective minds and will are brought to bear on the task. The final cause of the book is to motivate the reader into action to eliminate horrendous death. |
