About this book
Reviews
From the reviews:
“The book contains much of interest to established researchers, but it should also prove helpful to those new to the area of migration modelling given its lucid descriptions of methods, simple examples and an accompanying website which contains data and programs. … this is an impressive volume. … The Indirect Estimation of Migration should provide an excellent reference for any researcher or practitioner involved in migration and projections research who has to deal with imperfect migration data.” (Tom Wilson, Journal of Population Research, Vol. 27, 2010)Authors and Affiliations
