| Abstract
|
:
|
This best-selling report presents critical new evidence on the size of the health gap, and the extent to which the gap is widening. In particular, new geographical data are presented and displayed in striking graphical form. The widening gap should be read alongside Inequalities in health: The evidence presented to the Independent Inquiry into Inequalities in Health, chaired by Sir Donald Acheson (The Policy Press, 1999).
