At midnight on the thirty-first of March, in the village of Saugersville, in upstate New York, young John Herbert is left in darkness when the electric power goes off. The next morning George, who drives the milk truck, turns a bewildered face to the little group in the village store and says, “the road ain’t there no more.” Search parties are sent out and return, days later, exhausted and afraid, having found no other towns, railroads, or people. This is the dramatic background for the narrative poem; it is a classic tale for the ages, a psychological fantasy and a poetic equivalent of Wilder’s Our Town rolled into one.

This book offers an ideal introduction to the analysis of demographic data. Inside, readers of all quantitative skill levels will find the information they need to develop a solid understanding of the methods used to study human populations and how they change over time due to such factors as birth, death, and migration. The comprehensive, systematic coverage defines basic concepts and introduces data sources; champions the use of Lexis diagrams as a device for visualizing demographic measures; highlights the importance of making comparisons (whether over time or between populations at a point in time) that control for differences in population composition; describes approaches to analyzing mortality, fertility, and migration; and details approaches to the important field of population projection. Throughout, the author makes the material accessible for readers through careful exposition, the use of examples, and other helpful features. This book's thorough coverage of basic concepts and principles lays a firm foundation for anyone contemplating undertaking demographic research, whether in a university setting or in a professional employment that takes on a demographic dimension requiring in-house training.

Lying in the bed and sipping their drinks, both of them started feeling warmth descending down their gullets. Caressing each other they had a feeling of déjà vu. After sometimes, the warmth started engulfing their bodies as well giving color to their faces. There was an insidious openness between them by now and he was surprised, when she suddenly pounced upon him and holding his face in both hands, with her mouth slightly open pressed her lips tightly against his and started sucking his lower lip. This chivalry aroused him too and the hooliganism started with full force. Both were fresh after the sound sleep in the afternoon. She seemed to be nearing the perpetual destination and begged with painful hilarity to hurry up. Within a few seconds, she gave a loud cry followed by a deafening silence as if the whole universe had come to a standstill. They felt as if they were falling abysmally beneath the deep earth in a bottomless gorge without any hope of survival. He pinched his own shoulder to see whether he was alive or not?
