Críticas

"The book has a good feel to it. It is a well-written exposition of the essentials of a broad array of methods of demographic analysis from a modern point of view. Professor Namboodiri is a recognized master expositor of demographic and statistical methods. This and his years of experience in the teaching and application of demographic models and methods are evident in the quality of the manuscript.... The book could serve as a useful core text of a graduate level course in intermediate or advanced demographic methods. It provides an excellent treatment of the basics of the various topics it covers--many of which have large specialized literatures form which an instructor could draw selected additional materials."
