From the reviews:
"This volume . is a most welcome contribution to the research literature. . This book could grace any sociologist's book shelf. It would strongly benefit demographers to be exposed to these fine-grained analyses . . It is also useful to comparative international research. The sophistication of the analytical approaches . could be useful in a senior demography course, or certainly in a graduate course." (Susan A, McDaniel, Canadian Studies in Population, Vol. 36 (1-2), Spring/Summer, 2009)

The file format PDF always displays a book page identically on any hardware. This makes PDF suitable for complex layouts such as those used in textbooks and reference books (images, tables, columns, footnotes). Unfortunately, on the small screens of e-readers or smartphones, PDFs are rather annoying, requiring too much scrolling.
