This comprehensive yet accessible textbook is an ideal resource for
undergraduate and graduate students taking their first course in
demography. Clearly explaining technical demographic issues without
using extensive mathematics, Population and Society is
sociologically oriented, but incorporates a variety of social
sciences in its approach, including economics, political science,
geography, and history. It highlights the significant impact of
decision-making at the individual level - especially regarding
fertility, but also mortality and migration - on population change.
The text engages students by providing numerous examples of
demography's practical applications in their lives, and
demonstrates the extent of its relevance by examining a wide
selection of data from the United States, Africa, Asia, and Europe.
This thoroughly revised edition includes four new chapters,
covering topics such as race and sexuality, and encourages students
to consider the broad implications of population growth and change
for global challenges such as environmental degradation.
