POPULATION INTRODUCTION TO CONCEPTS 13th EDITION

Populations are
constantly changing and evolving, and each successive edition of
this book has aimed to keep up with demographic trends and the explanations

for them. Thus, every chapter of this current edition has been revised for
recency,
relevancy, reliability, and readability. At the same time, the teaching and
learning
environment has changed substantially over the years, and in this edition,
I have
responded to calls from users of the book to reorganize material and reduce
the
number of chapters so that everything of vital importance can be readily
covered in
one academic term. This edition has only 10 chapters, rather than the 12
chapters in
the previous edition, but all of the really good stuff is still in here.
