商品描述

Written by the 2018 Mindel C. Sheps Award winner, this textbook offers a unique method for teaching how to model spatial (multiregional) population dynamics through models of increasing complexity. Each chapter in this programmed workbook starts with a descriptive text, followed by a sequence of exercises focused on particular multiregional models, of increasing complexity, and then ends with the solutions.

It extends the current developments in the spatial analysis of social data towards improving our understanding of dynamics and interacting change across multiple populations in space. Frameworks for analyzing such dynamics were first proposed in multiregional demography, over 40 years ago. This book revisits these methods and then illustrates how they may be used to analyze spatial data and study spatial population dynamics.

Topics covered include spatial population dynamics, population projections and estimations, spatial and age structure of migration flows and much more. As such this innovative textbook is a great teaching and learning tool for teachers, students as well as individuals who want to study demographic processes across space.

商品描述(中文翻譯)

由2018年Mindel C. Sheps獎得主撰寫的這本教科書提供了一種獨特的方法,教導如何通過逐漸增加複雜性的模型來建模空間(多區域)人口動態。這本程式化的工作簿中的每一章都以描述性文本開始,接著是一系列專注於特定多區域模型的練習,這些模型的複雜性逐漸增加,最後以解答結束。

它擴展了社會數據空間分析的當前發展,旨在改善我們對多個人口在空間中動態和相互變化的理解。這種動態分析的框架在40多年前首次在多區域人口學中提出。本書重新檢視這些方法,並說明如何使用它們來分析空間數據和研究空間人口動態。

涵蓋的主題包括空間人口動態、人口預測和估算、遷移流的空間和年齡結構等。因此,這本創新的教科書對於教師、學生以及希望研究空間中人口過程的個人來說,都是一個極好的教學和學習工具。

作者簡介

Before his move to Colorado in 1983, the author spent eight years at the International Institute for Applied Systems Analysis (IIASA) in Laxenburg, Austria, where he headed a research program that addressed global human settlement problems and issues. He moved to Boulder, Colorado in 1983 to take on the job of Director of the Population Program, stepping down after 20 years in 2003. He is the author of twelve books on various aspects of population analysis. His current teaching and research interests revolve around the topics of immigration, internal migration, and population geographies.

In 2000, Professor Rogers received the Walter Isard Award for Distinguished Lifetime Scholarly Achievement from the North American Regional Science Association. In 2018 Professor Rogers was awarded the Mindel C. Sheps Award at the Population Association of America meeting. This award is given every two years for "outstanding contributions to demographic methodology" and is the world's highest recognition in formal demography.

作者簡介(中文翻譯)

在1983年搬到科羅拉多州之前,作者在奧地利拉克斯堡的國際應用系統分析研究所(IIASA)工作了八年,負責一個針對全球人類定居問題的研究計畫。他於1983年搬到科羅拉多州的博爾德,擔任人口計畫主任,並在2003年卸任,任期長達20年。他是關於人口分析各個方面的十二本書的作者。他目前的教學和研究興趣圍繞移民、內部遷移和人口地理學的主題。

在2000年,羅傑斯教授獲得北美區域科學協會頒發的沃爾特·艾薇德終身學術成就獎。2018年,羅傑斯教授在美國人口協會會議上獲得明德·C·謝普斯獎。該獎每兩年頒發一次,以表彰「對人口方法論的卓越貢獻」,是正式人口學領域的最高榮譽。
