While the standard approach of plotting death rates is also covered, the focus in this book is on the depiction of rates of mortality improvement over age and time. This rather novel approach offers a more intuitive understanding of the underlying dynamics, enabling readers to better understand whether period- or cohort-effects were instrumental for the development of mortality in a particular country. Besides maps for single countries, the book includes maps on the dynamics of selected causes of death in the United States, such as cardiovascular diseases or lung cancer. The book also features maps for age-specific contributions to the change in life expectancy, for cancer survival and for seasonality in mortality for selected causes of death in the United States. The book is accompanied by instructions on how to use the freely available R Software to produce these types of surface maps. Readers are encouraged to use the presented tools to visualize other demographic data or any event that can be measured by age and calendar time, allowing them to adapt the methods to their respective research interests. The intended audience is anyone who is interested in visualizing data by age and calendar time; no specialist knowledge is required. 588 Description based on online resource; title from PDF title page (viewed January 3, 2020). 590 SpringerLink|bSpringer Nature Open Access eBooks 650 0 Mortality|xStatistical methods. 650 0 Demography. 650 7 Computing and information technology.|2bicssc 650 7 Medical|xPublic Health.|2bisacsh 650 7 Social Science|xStatistics.|2bisacsh 650 7 Social Science|xDemography.|2bisacsh 650 7 Demography.|2fast|0(OCoLC)fst00890158 650 7 Public health.|2fast|0(OCoLC)fst01082238 650 7 Social sciences.|2fast|0(OCoLC)fst01122877 650 7 Statistics.|2fast|0(OCoLC)fst01132103 650 12 Population Dynamics|xstatistics & numerical data. 650 12 Mortality|xtrends. 650 22 Data Visualization. 650 22 Computer Simulation. 650 22 Models, Statistical. 653 0 Data 653 0 Lexis Diagram 653 0 Mortality dynamics 653 0 Software 700 1 Bohk-Ewald, Christina,|eauthor. 700 1 Muszyńska, Magdalena,|eauthor. 700 1 Vaupel, James W.,|eauthor. 776 08 |iPrinted edition:|z9783319648187|w(OCoLC)992781972 830 0 Springer series on demographic methods and population analysis ;|v44.|x1389-6784 914 on1017777913 994 92|bSTJ
