AbstractT.P. Hutchinson. Road Accident Statistics. (Rumsby Scientific Publishing, Adelaide, 1987) This book is unique. It is the first comprehensive and detailed documentation of the processes that are followed in the collection of road accident data. The book has 14 chapters: the first two present data on road accident fatalities from 150 countries; five deal with police accident data; six with injury classification methods and their use by police, hospitals and coroners; and one with insurance data. The relevant literature from a large number of countries is examined, although most of the detailed information comes from Australia, Britain and the USA.
