Abstract
Emerging Techniques in Applied Demography brings together Asian, Australian, European, and North American demographers, sociologists, economists, statisticians, and public health specialists to examine a wide variety of public and private issues under the field of applied demography. Contributors to this book are among the leading applied demographers. They are actively engaged in developing and refining methods and techniques to address issues and problems in developing, assessing, analyzing, and reporting data on a range of demographic topics. The result of their work, presented in these chapters, illustrates the policy-relevant nature of applied demography. This publication also stresses the importance of continuing to share advances in the development and application of the methods and materials of applied demography.
