title: [Some problems in the use of the new U.N. model life tables].
abstract: "After a brief introduction to new United Nations model life tables for developing countries, we have proceeded to point out some blanks contained in them....[A theoretical] approach has allowed us to demonstrate the inadequacy of some fundamental assumptions on which the methods used are based.  [An empirical approach] has enabled us to point out some of the problems that may be encountered when using the tables." (SUMMARY IN ENG AND ITA)
