Description and Table of Contents
Description
The economic consequences of changing demographics are of as much significance now as when this book was first published.
The book covers not only changes in population size and age-composition, but also factors not included in the word 'declining' - such as increased life expectancy.
Part 1 examines how estimates of future populations are made, and what the position is in the UK. It serves as a basis for Part 2, which discusses the developments in each of the more important parts of our economic life, without exaggerating the influence of the population factor.
