Recensioner i media

"More experienced practitioners, whether in the field of demography or in a field in which demographic analysis is used, will find the book to be a useful reference document. ... the overall organization of the book is logical. It follows a fairly standard approach to presenting demographic methods. ... The strengths of this book are its structure, organization, and the thorough treatment of demographic methods." (Gustave Goldmann, Canadian Studies in population, Vol. 42 (3-4), 2015)
