  • Title: Survival of the fittest: a comparison of medicine and health on Lord Howe Island and St Kilda.
    Author: Stride P.
    Journal: J R Coll Physicians Edinb; 2010 Dec; 40(4):368-73. PubMed ID: 21132149.
    Abstract:
    Lord Howe Island and the St Kilda archipelago have many similarities, yet their communities had totally disparate outcomes. The characteristics of the two islands are compared and contrasted, and it is hypothesised that the differences in health and diseases largely explain the success of one society and the failure of the other.
