contribution to the further development of knowledge about the history
of the family in various social and cultural contexts....The Quarterly
will publish essays in the history of the family, household and
kinship, marriage, childhood and youth, the life course and aging, and
historical demographic topics as these relate to the family. In
addition, the Quarterly will contain book review essays, reports in the
form of research notes, descriptions of data bases and other source
materials, and conference reports. It will also publish special issues
devoted to specific topics and regions."

International Journal of Population Geography. Vol. 1, No. 1,
Sep 1995. 109 pp. John Wiley and Sons: Chichester, England. In Eng.
"IJPG is a broadly based journal reflecting the research
interests of geographers, demographers and social scientists in
general. Many of its articles will report empirical findings, but they
will do so in ways that are accessible to non-specialists since they
will draw implications for theory or policy as appropriate. We will
also encourage the publication of articles aimed at the enhancement of
methodological and theoretical debates and the development of social
policy. This broad base will also be reflected in the journal's book
review section which will aim to provide critical comment on the best
work to appear in the field."
Selected items will be cited in
this or subsequent issues of Population Index.
