Summary

Earth’s human population inhabits a complex web shaping population movements and patterns of births and deaths. Nine experts explore the nature of the interplay linking rich and poor countries. The demographic experience of each nation occurs in a larger context of social, political, economic, cultural, religious, military, and biological forces.
