Book excerpt: Demography meaning the study of population deals with all aspects of population. The book is divided in 2 parts. While Part-I deals with various problems relating to different aspects of population, Part-II provides all types of basic data dealing directly/indirectly with different aspects of population. It is hoped that the book will be of great value to the students, researchers and all those who are interested to know about the Demographics in India. Some tables directly/ indirectly concerned with the subject are provided at the end to help the reader to understand the subject better.
