Description
This textbook provides an exposition of the fundamental mathematics of multiregional population systems. It is designed for the reader who is interested in the dynamics of interdependent subnational populations that are linked to each other by directional migration flows. The book contains many numerical illustrations based on empirical data collected in Belgium, India, Mexico, the former Soviet Union, Sweden and the USA. To facilitate the analyses of these and other data sets, the book is accompanied by a diskette with a general purpose computer program for personal computers, and several empirical sample data sets.
