"Health, United States, 1989 is the 14th annual report on the health status of the Nation submitted by the Secretary of Health and Human Services to the President and Congress of the United States in compliance with Section 308 of the Public Health Service Act. This volume also contains the fourth triennial Prevention Profie, submitted by the Secretary of the Department of Health and Human Services to the President and the Congress of the United States in compliance with the Health Services and Centers Amendments of 1978 (Public Law 95626). These reports were compiled by the National Center for Health Statistics, Centers for Disease Control. The 1989 Prevention Prafile serves as an integral part of the Department's overall disease prevention and health promotion initiative by providing data to chart progress toward the five broad goals published in Healthy People: The Surgeon General's Report on Health Promotion and Disease Prevention, It also delineates all of the 1990 objectives contained in Promoting Health/Preventing Disease: Objectives for the Nation and presents data, where available, to measure and evaluate progress since the objectives were established. Health, United States, 1989 presents statistics concerning recent trends in the health care sector. The 13 1 detailed tables in this year's report are organized around four major subject areas-health status-and determinants, utilization of health resources, health care resources, and health care expenditures. The detailed tables are designed to show continuing trends in health statistics. A major criterion used in selecting the detailed tables is the availability of comparable national data." - p. iii ; Overall responsibility for planning and coordinating the content of this volume rested with the Office of Analysis and Epidemiology, National Center for Health Statistics, under the general direction of Jacob J.

The role of the Congress is essential to any study of American government and politics. It would be impossible to gain a complete understanding of the American system of government without an appreciation of the nature and workings of this essential body. This is an introductory text aimed at undergraduates studying American politics and American society. It looks at the workings of the United States Congress, and uses the Republican period of ascendancy, which lasted from 1994 until 2000, as an example of how the Congress works in practice. The book illustrates the basic principles of Congress using contemporary and recent examples, while also drawing attention to the changes that took place in the 1990s. The period of Republican control is absent from many of the standard texts and is of considerable academic interest for a number of reasons, not least the 1994 election, the budget deadlock in 1995 and the Clinton impeachment scandal of 1999. The book traces the origin and development of the United States Congress, before looking in depth at the role of representatives and senators, the committee system, parties in Congress, and the relationship between Congress and the President, the media and interest groups. This will be the first textbook on the market that enables students to incorporate these developments into their work and into their thinking about contemporary American politics and society.
