On page 207, the first two sentences of the second paragraph in the right-hand column should read as follows: "Between 1975 and 2002, AAMRs for black males showed a net decrease of 37 percent, while for white males, rates declined 42 percent. For black and white females, AAMRs showed net declines of 31 percent and 34 percent, respectively."
