The second edition of this popular and widely acclaimed undergraduate text has been completely rewritten and extended to incorporate the most contemporary perspectives. Drawing from the latest world population data, the book concentrates on: *Evolving patterns of fertility, mortality, and migration *The spatial and temporal processes that fashion them * Resultant problems * Remedial strategies. Illustrated with a wide range of case studies drawn from all parts of the world, Population Geography clearly depicts the cause-and-effect links between demographic change and the socio-economic transformation of societies.
