Demography is a vital discipline that encompasses the study of population dynamics such as births, deaths, migration, and marriages. It serves as an indispensable tool in understanding the social, cultural, economic, and biological aspects of human life. By employing both qualitative and quantitative methods, demography examines these dynamics and their implications on society, thereby establishing its significance across various spheres of life.

DEMOGRAPHY
Demography is the study of human population. Demography (from the Greek, meaning "Description of population") is a close cousin of sociology that investigates the size, age, sex -composition of a society's population, as well as how they move from place to place. Although much demographic research is quantitative, demography is more than a numbers game. The discipline poses crucial question, about the causes and the consequences of the population growth.
"Foreward" to The Frontiers of Applied Demography
2018
The field of applied demography is largely driven by the quest for the knowledge required by clients, both in public and private sectors, to make good decisions within time and costs constraints. The book series, Applied Demography, provides a forum for illustrating and discussing the use of demographic methods, concepts, and perspectives in a wide range of settings-business, government, education, law, and public policy-as well as the influence of these settings on demographic methods, concepts, and perspectives. The books within the series can be used as resources for practitioners and as materials serving as case studies for pedagogical uses.
