In addition to traditional population concerns, such as growth, composition, fertility, mortality, and migration, the articles address a broad range of related issues, including climate change, environmental degradation, socio-economic development, and policy development. The articles are concise, focused on specific issues, and presented in a style that avoids technical jargon and is easily understood by a broad range of readers. The articles are not only aimed at conveying population information, but also providing important messages for informed policy formulation and program implementation. Among the many issues addressed are human rights, laws, women, gender, climate change, COVID-19 pandemic, ageing, retirement, and abortion. Written in an accessible way, the book will appeal to many general readers wishing to know more about population issues. 001452318 588__ $$aOnline resource; title from PDF title page (SpringerLink, viewed January 23, 2023). 001452318 651_0 $$aUnited States$$xPopulation. 001452318 655_0 $$aElectronic books. 001452318 77608 $$iPrint version:$$z3031224787$$z9783031224782$$w(OCoLC)1349449366 001452318 852__ $$bebk 001452318 85640 $$3Springer Nature$$uhttps://univsouthin.idm.oclc.org/login?url=https://link.springer.com/10.1007/978-3-031-22479-9$$zOnline Access$$91397441.1 001452318 909CO $$ooai:library.usi.edu:1452318$$pGLOBAL_SET 001452318 980__ $$aBIB 001452318 980__ $$aEBOOK 001452318 982__ $$aEbook 001452318 983__ $$aOnline 001452318 994__ $$a92$$bISE
