The location is Los Angeles County, and the patterns of 72 different malignancies are described according to race, age, sex, social class calendar time (since 1972) and most notably, individual neighborhood, using detailed maps of high risk. This second edition uses twice as many cases and more demographic diversity.
Physicians and scientific investigators in California and elsewhere can use the material provided to counsel patients and evaluate the consistency of any specific pattern of occurrence with each specific causal hypothesis. A detailed appendix describes the source of data, provides the basis for the choices made in the production of the volume, and gives a perspective on the search for "clusters" of malignancy.
- Compares different types of cancers with respect to the degree of non-random occurrence
- Contains numerous maps detailing the demographic and geographic pattern of cancer occurrence in Los Angeles County
- Provides an empirical perspective on the search for disease "clusters"
Cancer researchers; epidemiologists; chronic disease investigators; environmental scientists; local and national government public health agencies
