Description
This glossary is an up-to-date research tool for the study of population. Based on the technical literature in the three languages listed, it comprises more than 7500 technical terms accessible in three directions: English-Japanese -German, Japanese-English-German and German-Japanese-English.
"...the glossary is an important research tool through the translations of such a rich array of terms into three languages. Persons working in the field of demography will come to appreciate the variety of concepts that can be associated with their discipline, while persons from other disciplines will have an easy reference to the accepted terms used in population studies." Canadian Studies in Population, Vol. 37.3-4, Fall/Winter, pp. 611-612
