Since the Cuban Revolution in 1959, many more women have entered the workforce and have started to play a full role in society. Over the same period, fertility and infant mortality rates have fallen dramatically. By the early 1980s women were having fewer children than in many industrialised countries. The reasons for these changes are of considerable interest to countries searching for policies which will reduce fertility rates and increase women's economic status and activity. This monograph is based largely on a sample survey by the Cuban Federation of Women and the University of Havana of a.

This Bulletin examines the causes and consequences of the rapid demographic changes that have accompanied the transformation of Cuba's society and economy since the revolutionary government takeover in 1959. With free or low-cost health care now universally available, life expectancy has risen to 72 years, close to the world's highest. Income rises for disadvantaged groups that came fromearly redistribution measures clearly prompted the brief post-1959 baby boom.

As health care concerns grow in the U.S., medical anthropologist Linda M. Whiteford and social psychologist Larry G. Branch present their findings on a health care anomaly, from an unlikely source. Primary Health Care in Cuba examines the highly successful model of primary health care in Cuba following the 1959 Cuban Revolution. This model, developed during a time of dramatic social and political change, created a preventive care system to better provide equity access to health care. Cuba's recognition as a paragon of health care has earned praise from the World Health Organization, UNICEF, and the Pan American Health Organization. In this book, Whiteford and Branch explore the successes of Cuba's preventive primary health care system and its contribution to global health.

Hispanics and the Future of America presents details of the complex story of a population that varies in many dimensions, including national origin, immigration status, and generation. The papers in this volume draw on a wide variety of data sources to describe the contours of this population, from the perspectives of history, demography, geography, education, family, employment, economic well-being, health, and political engagement. They provide a rich source of information for researchers, policy makers, and others who want to better understand the fast-growing and diverse population that we call "Hispanic." The current period is a critical one for getting a better understanding of how Hispanics are being shaped by the U.S. experience. This will, in turn, affect the United States and the contours of the Hispanic future remain uncertain. The uncertainties include such issues as whether Hispanics, especially immigrants, improve their educational attainment and fluency in English and thereby improve their economic position; whether growing numbers of foreign-born Hispanics become citizens and achieve empowerment at the ballot box and through elected office; whether impending health problems are successfully averted; and whether Hispanics' geographic dispersal accelerates their spatial and social integration. The papers in this volume provide invaluable information to explore these issues.

It also provides unique insights into the island’s fight against poverty, its aging population, and its trade unions. This book will be an invaluable resource for years to come.
