چکیده
Riassunto L’obiettivo di questo lavoro è quello di analizzare la dinamica della mortalità per causa utilizzando un nuovo, semplice ed efficace strumento: la rappresentazione della principale causa di morte per età e nel tempo.

Focalizzando l’attenzione sull’ultima fase della transizione, vengono in seguito analizzati i più recenti profili della mortalità attraverso le superfici delle principali localizzazioni nell'ambito della classe dei tumori.
