Demography may be conceived as consisting of two facets, demographic analysis and population studies. The former is concerned only with the study of population size and composition and components of variation and change; the latter, with the interrelationships of population and other systems of variables of which the sociological constitute but one set. Population study affords the sociologist the opportunity to work with quantified variables which provide some bechmark against which to work with other sets of variables. Demography, although a multiscience discipline, can contribute to the central interests of sociology and, in return, gain from study of the interrelations of demographic and sociological variables
