Beskrivande text

The whole sweep of Western experience of the modernization of demographic behavior is dealt with impartially in this work. Though it is technically sophisticated, the book also covers issues of interpretation and analysis of European and non-European demographic transitions. The author argues that less developed countries are following the same general patterns as developed countries, and shows why he believes the theory should include the effect of population changes on the economic progress of society.
