For more than 40 years, POPULATION has been introducing students to population issues, concepts and theories by encompassing the entire field of demography, including both principle and practice. From fertility and mortality rates to agricultural production and urbanization, Weeks (and now with friend and colleague López-Carr) consistently engages students through compelling writing and comprehensive explication.
