Title: | Demography Through Problems |
Authors: | Keyfitz, Nathan P.R. Halmos |
Keywords: | Demography Problems, exercises |
Issue Date: | 1984 |
Publisher: | Springer |
Description: | The book that follows is an experiment in the teaching of population theory and analysis. A sequence of problems where each is a self-contained puzzle, and the successful solution of each which puts the student in a position to tackle the next, is a means of securing the active participation of the learner and so the mastery of a technical subject. How far our questions are the exciting puzzles at which we aimed, and how far the sequence constitutes a rounded course in demography, must be left to the user to judge. One test of a good problem is whether a solution, that may take hours of cogitation, is immediately recognizable once it comes to mind |
