density, each country's birth and death rates, population increase or decrease, industrialization, urbanization, gross national product in
term of per capital income, the quality of medical care, literacy, and language. To give readers a perspective on how their own country
fits in with the global view, additional projections depict the world's patterns in nutrition, calorie and protein consumption, health care,
number of physicians per unit of population, and life expectancy by region. Population density maps on a sub-continental scale, as well
