It describes this vital tool, which helps demographers visualize data, and examines its various forms through a specially designed example. As a result, readers get to see the Lexis diagram in practice and gain first-hand insight into its different forms.   The authors first present a brief description of the life of W. Lexis with information about his childhood, studies, and work. Coverage details the places closely related to him as well as his working positions. It also lists and characterizes his publications.   The book then goes on to summarize and describe the chronological development of the Lexis diagram, from initial developments through the specific contributions of W. Lexis to the refinements of those who followed. Throughout, it clearly describes as well as graphically and prac tically illustrates all the different versions of the diagram covered.   Next, readers are presented with contemporary practical applications, including: Statistical Analysis System (SAS), R, and Lexis software as well as selected key-studies from demographic, epidemiologic, and migration research.   The Lexis diagram is an essential tool for working correctly with demographic data. This book commemorates the man who helped to develop these diagrams and his unquestionable influence on demography. It also provides readers with deep knowledge and insights into this basic, yet important, tool. 410 0$aSpringerBriefs in Population Studies,$x2211-3215 606 $aDemography 606 $aStatistics  606 $aPopulation 606 $aDemography$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/X25000 606 $aStatistics for Social Sciences, Humanities, Law$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/S17040 606 $aPopulation Economics$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/W38000 615 0$aDemography. 615 0$aStatistics . 615 0$aPopulation. 615 14$aDemography. 615 24$aStatistics for Social Sciences, Humanities, Law. 615 24$aPopulation Economics. 676 $a304.6072 700 $aHulíková Tesárková$b Klára$4aut$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/aut$0974385 702 $aKurtinová$b Olga$4aut$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/aut 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910300855703321 996 $aLexis in Demography$92218322 997 $aUNINA
