Description

"Population" initially provides an up-to-date overview of demographic trends within the context of forecasting future needs in such areas as transport, education and energy resources. Then, after considering the reality of current global population change, the book provides a detailed commentary on: fertility and population control; mortality and life expectancy; population structure and age dependency; population density and distribution; and, population migration.

Reviews

The "Access to Geography" series... has hit the right level and style for A-level students as well as lay readers. It offers a general introduction to key topics, case studies, summaries and exercises, and plentiful subheadings and bullet-points help easy navigation. -- TES Teacher 20040618
