Beginning in the late 1980s, longstanding questions about the status of demography as a science came to the surface, and I began to pursue them actively. Looking back, I realize that at some point I became less a demographer and more a demography critic? cf. art critic or music critic? and an amateur philosopher of science. My central concern has been with the role and status of theory in demography"--Preface. 000838389 650_0 $$aDemography. 000838389 650_0 $$aDemography$$xMathematical models. 000838389 77608 $$iPrint version:$$aBurch, Thomas K.$$tModel-based demography.$$dCham : Springer Verlag, [2018 i.e. 2017]$$z9783319654324$$z3319654322$$w(OCoLC)994639500 000838389 852__ $$bebk 000838389 85640 $$3SpringerLink$$uhttps://univsouthin.idm.oclc.org/login?url=http://link.springer.com/10.1007/978-3-319-65433-1$$zOnline Access$$91397441.1 000838389 909CO $$ooai:library.usi.edu:838389$$pGLOBAL_SET 000838389 980__ $$aEBOOK 000838389 980__ $$aBIB 000838389 982__ $$aEbook 000838389 983__ $$aOnline 000838389 994__ $$a92$$bISE
