Description:	Understanding Population Trends and Processes is a groundbreaking initiative funded by the Economic and Social Research Council. It has built capacity through a range of projects undertaken by early and mid career academics and has creatively matched experienced academics with user fellows to explore issues that are of critical importance to the evolution of our society. This volume on Spatial and Social Disparities shows the full richness of the contribution that this innovative programme has made to our understanding of questions that go to the heart of how communities across the UK function. It also provides a clever introduction to the use of a wide range of datasets that are available as a resource to researchers in many disciplines and for inter-disciplinary analysis. As Chair of the programme’s Advisory Committee, I have seen the various contributors to this book shape their ideas and bring them to realisation. It has been a wonderfully fulfilling experience. All of us who have been privileged to be associated with the programme owe a great debt to John Stillwell who has directed the programme with great distinction over the last four years and who has edited this book with Paul Norman, Claudia Thomas and Paula Surridge, three early career researchers whose contribution to the programme has been exemplary. I hope that in studying this book you too will benefit from the many insights it offers and be inspired yourself to contribute further to our understanding of the topics covered.
