Well. The guy, a phD and a research scientist, whose number I had
quoted insisted that he had done a detailed study using quantitative
method.
"I am a 4-decade career research scientist (and still giving theory
and
laboratory courses to second year university science students at a
leading Australian university). I have addressed this British carnage
in India in a quantitative fashion, using the parameter of “avoidable
death” (excess death, avoidable mortality, excess mortality, untimely
death, deaths that should not have happened) which is defined as the
difference between the actual deaths in a country and the deaths
expected for a pweaceful, decently run country with the same
demographics (see my book “Body Count. Global avoidable mortality
since 1950”, G.M. Polya, Melbourne, 2007: http://mwcnews.net/Gideon-Polya
and http://globalbodycount.blogspot.com/ )."
You are welcomed to rebuke his findings but your impressionistic
approach
does not constitute any kind of rebuff.
