Raymondo provides a step-by-step guide through the complex
issues associated with the methods of producing population
estimates and projections. The author's approach reflects both his
formal training in the study of population and his experience as an
applied demographer, where he was frequently called upon to present
technical population data to a lay audience. The result is a book
firmly grounded in the methods and procedures of demography, but
presented in a clear, concise manner for the everyday user of
population estimates and projections. This book is a key resource
for anyone dealing with population data.
Raymondo begins by describing the general nature and differences
of population estimates and projections. The author then takes the
reader through several methodological issues that provide a
foundation for the basic concepts of demographic analysis related
to the production of population estimates and projections. Also
provided is a helpful discussion on the intricacies of U.S. Bureau
of the Census geographic concepts, and a general discussion on
major sources of data for the estimation and projection
process.
