EDITORIAL REVIEWS

Product Description
Demographics class just got a lot more interesting. POPULATION doesn't just give you the information; it shows you how to use it. From the debate over how to rebuild the Gulf Coast after Hurricane Katrina to what should be done about Social Security and Medicare, POPULATION lets you apply the research yourself. Plus, POPULATION makes studying for the test easier than ever with its built-in study aides.


CUSTOMER REVIEWS (Average Customer Rating: 5.0 based on 2 reviews)

Yeah its a text, but its good...  
Weeks is a genius. He came into my population life course class and spoke about anything we wanted to know, and was happy to be there. Which is weird, coming from the academic world.

Population by Weeks Review  
This is a great introduction to demographics. It provides a easy to read introduction. It is still a college textbook. The author integrates humor into the text, which certainly kept me reading. Infotrac was completely worthless. It was a password to a three-month trial of access to databases. I already have access to databases through other sources, school and the library.
