DEMOGRAPHY AT THE EDGE

International Population Studies

Series Editor: Professor Philip Rees,
School of Geography, University of Leeds, UK

This series provides an outlet for integrated and in-depth coverage of innovative research on population themes and techniques. International in scope, the books in the series will cover topics such as migration and mobility, advanced population projection techniques, microsimulation modeling, life course analysis, demographic estimation methods and relationship statistics.

The series will include research monographs, edited collections, advanced level textbooks and reference works on both methods and substantive topics. Key to the series is the presentation of knowledge founded on social science analysis of hard demographic facts based on censuses, surveys, vital and migration statistics.
