The Routledge Handbook of Census Resources, Methods and Applications - Bog

Highlighting the value of the UK 2011 Census, this comprehensive handbook sets the use of its results in the context of census-taking around the world and its historical development and future. The book presents a collection of applications of census data in different social science research contexts that reveal key messages about the characteristics of the British population and the ways in which society is changing. New methods and technologies, such as interactive infographics and web-based mapping, and how these are now being used to visualise census data in new and exciting ways is also covered.
