Description
This full-color text offers a comprehensive introduction to population geography, grounding students in the tools and techniques that are used to describe and understand population concepts.

The fifth edition will be updated throughout to incorporate up-to-date demographic data. Other major revisions include:
recent trends and policy updates
the impacts of COVID-19 on mortality, fertility, and mobility patterns
the implications of an aging population
expansion of non-US examples to highlight key concepts
updated graphs and figures
updated instructor resources
