In the new 4th edition of this Population Bulletin, author Joseph McFalls discusses the basic forces of demographic change � fertility, mortality, and migration � and common assessment measures. Also covered are how these three forces affect a population's size and growth rate, and how population projections are calculated; common demographic variables such as age, sex, and race/ethnicity; and issues and problems associated with population growth. (December 2003)
