This book provides an up-to-date overview of demographic analysis
and methods, including recent developments in demography. Concepts
and methods, from the nature of demographic information through
data collection and the basics of statistical measures and on to
demographic analysis itself are succinctly explained. Measures and
analyses of fertility, mortality, life tables, migration and
demographic events such as marriage, education and labour force are
described while later chapters cover multiple decrement tables,
population projections, the importance of testing and smoothing
demographic data, the stable population model and demographic
software. An emphasis on practical aspects and the use of real-life
examples based on data from around the globe make this book
accessible, whilst comprehensive references and links to data and
other resources on the internet help readers to explore further.
The text is concise and well written, making it ideally suited to a
wider audience from students to academics and teachers. Students of
demography, geography, sociology, economics, as well as
professionals, academics and students of marketing, human resource
management, and public health who have an interest in population
issues will all find this book useful.
