Îïèñàíèå: � This edited collection shows how demographic analysis plays a pivotal role in planning, policy and funding decisions in Australia.
Îïèñàíèå: Focuses on applications of demographic models, extending to matrix models for stage-classified populations. This book introduces the life table to describe age-specific mortality, and develops theory for stable populations and the rate of population increase. It also introduces reproductive value and the stable equivalent population.

Îïèñàíèå: This book provides a series of case studies which demonstrate the usefulness of taking a demographic approach to the social, political and economic history of the Graeco-Roman world. The book will appeal not only to ancient historians but also to demographers and social scientists interested in ancient population studies.

Îïèñàíèå: This book is intended as a relatively nontechnica1 introduction to eurrent demographie methods. Finally, I have tried to make the principal methodologies of the book accessible, by offering explanations for formulas that are not obvious, by keeping examples to the forefront, and by placing relatively specialized topics in ehapter appendices.

Îïèñàíèå: The new edition of this classic book collects the founding works of mathematical demography from Roman times to the late Twentieth Century, updates commentaries by the editors and illustrates the deep roots and continuing vitality of mathematical demography.
Îïèñàíèå: Sustainability of pension systems, intergeneration fiscal equity under population aging, and accounting for health care benefits for future retirees are examples of problems that cannot be solved without understanding the nature of population forecasts and their uncertainty. Similarly, the accuracy of population estimates directly affects both the distributions of formula-based government allocations to sub-national units and the apportionment of political representation. The book develops the statistical foundation for addressing such issues. Areas covered include classical mathematical demography, event history methods, multi-state methods, stochastic population forecasting, sampling and census coverage, and decision theory. The methods are illustrated with empirical applications from Europe and the U.S.For statisticians the book provides a unique introduction to demographic problems in a familiar language. For demographers, actuaries, epidemiologists, and professionals in related fields, the book presents a unified statistical outlook on both classical methods of demography and recent developments. To facilitate its classroom use, exercises are included. Over half of the book is readily accessible to undergraduates, but more maturity may be required to benefit fully from the complete text. Knowledge of differential and integral calculus, matrix algebra, basic probability theory, and regression analysis is assumed.
