Recent work in multistate demographic analysis has led to a generalization of traditional demographic techniques for analyzing such problems. The papers in this issue are representative examples of work currently being carried out on this subject. A unifying thread is the use of matrix algebra to express multidimensional demographic processes in a compact and notationally elegant form which often leads to analytical insights that otherwise may be hidden in the more complicated nonmatrix formulations.","1980-05","published",,"10.1068/a120489",,,,,,"",,,,,"",,,,,"",,,,,"","",,"",,,,,,,"2339","none",,,,"Environment and Planning A","12","5",,"489-498",,,,,,,,,,,"TRUE",,"0308-518X",,,,,,"","","","",,"","",,,,,,,"",,,,,"FALSE","no",,"info:eu-repo/semantics/article",
