Coale advises use of the "West" family of models for the study of areas outside of Europe, as it is based upon the largest number of cases and adequately describes some popu lations in Asia that are equally well-studied. Coale would not attempt to argue that these four are the only age-specific patterns of mortality in the world: in fact there are probably an infinite number, de pending upon the size of the deviation from other patterns that is considered critical for establishing a new type.
