520    "At the turn of the twentieth century, many observers 
       considered suicide to be a worldwide social problem that 
       had reached epidemic proportions. This idea was especially
       powerful in Mexico City, where tragic and violent deaths 
       in public urban spaces seemed commonplace in a city 
       undergoing rapid modernization. Crime rates mounted, 
       corpses piled up in the morgue, and the media reported on 
       sensational cases of murder and suicide. More troublesome 
       still, a compelling death wish appeared to grip women and 
       youth. Drawing on an extensive range of sources, from 
       judicial records to the popular press, Death in the City 
       examines the cultural meanings of death and self-
       destruction in modern Mexico. The author examines 
       approaches and responses to suicide and death, disproving 
       the long-held belief that Mexicans possessed a cavalier 
       response to death"--Provided by publisher.
