Book Description
This is a comprehensive but concise reference that documents the nature and importance of the injury problem in the United States. For each of more than sixty causes of injury, data are presented by age, race, sex, geographic area, urban/rural residence, and per capita income. The second edition includes new chapters on injuries related to sports, work, aviation, and large trucks. Also new are many analyses subdivided by four racial groups as well as age and sex, made possible by the use of mortality data from a seven year period. The updated analyses of time trends throughout the book document major reductions in death rates over the past decade. As a statistical compilation, the book offers users a quick reference to valuable detail, much of which would otherwise be inaccessible. It also discusses reasons for many of the extreme differences among groups of people in injury death rates and describes promising avenues to prevention. This accessible, readable reference will be valuable to public health personnel, physicians, epidemiologists, safety planners and policy makers.

Book Description
"Every year around 1.4 million people in England and Wales will attend hospital as a result of a head injury, and of these, 150,000 people will be admitted. Thanks to advances in medical technology, the outlook for those who suffer a head injury is much improved. Most will have a normal life expectancy, but many will experience problems associated with the injury they have sustained. It can be a stressful experience, not just for the individual affected, but also for those around them." "Head Injury: The Facts explains how the brain is affected when a head injury occurs, the physical, cognitive, and emotional problems that can arise as a result, and how to cope in the weeks, months, and - potentially - years after the accident. It offers practical advice on coping strategies, emphasising that knowledge and support are key to overcoming a head injury as a family. It also includes a frequently asked questions' section written especially for children who know someone who has been injured."--BOOK JACKET.
