    Abstract:
    "This study aims at producing acceptable estimates of a number of indicators of infant and child mortality in Palestinian camps in Lebanon by using the Brass technique. The study utilized data provided by two comprehensive surveys...carried out in 1979 and 1989." Results are provided on the decline in infant mortality between 1977 and 1989; the reduction in the probability of dying between ages one and five; life expectancy at birth; sex differences in infant mortality; and changes in death rates and life expectancy by mother's educational level.
