内容説明

This volume provides coverage of genetics and demography, fields that are closely related, but relatively rarely combined. Now especially, they have many topics and approaches in common: the use of historical materials, a basic concern with heterogeneity, new models of vital rates with behavioural and biological components, theories for the interplay of genetic and demographic factors in the spread of disease. This comprehensive survey of a fast-growing field seeks to serve as a valuable source of information for geneticists, population biologists, biostatisticians, social and economic demographers and anthropologists.
