Roll over image to zoom in

Product Description

In this study, I have made a modest empirical attempt to reconstruct from scattered sources and incomplete records the history of population change in the Brahmaputra Valley of Assam of the period 1881 to 1931, covering five decades of demographic transition. In its restricted sense, this is a work on the regional historical demography of Assam and would form part of the larger corpus of knowledge called Regional Population Accounting or Regional Human Book-keeping. It is well-known, but nonetheless important to observe, that demography, construed as accounting of human units and of vital events, is a science of measurement of historical phenomena. No such science can be effectively designed without understanding what it exactly intends to measure and what the measurement signifies. It is also important to know to what extent this science can be reasonably expected to measure demographic phenomena whose dynamics operate ceaselessly.
