The authors uses data collected for 350 cities around the world to paint a picture of global mortality trends at the turn of the twentieth century. The authors analyse data on diphtheria, enteric fever, measles, scarlet fever, tuberculosis, and whooping cough, and death from all causes, to give insights into patterns of mortality from these diseases.
