“The book is a vital contribution for anyone involved beyond the numbers in this particularly difficult kind of excess mortality. … The book performs a notable service in documenting methodologies to measure and evaluate this special kind of excess mortality within the realm of population studies. … This book cannot be ignored by those engaged directly in this work and by those dealing with its consequences.” (Johanne Sanschagrin, Canadian Studies in Population, Vol. 44 (1-2), 2017)
