This eye-opening book looks at demographic trends in Europe North America, and Asia - areas that now have low fertility rates - and argues that there is an essential yet often neglected political dimension to a full assessment of these trends.

Home-range characteristics and movement patterns of five male and eight female red-legged pademelons
(Thylogale stigmatica) were studied in north-eastem Queensland between September 1991 and June 1992
using radio-telemetry. In relation to mean body weight, the home range of T. stigmatica was small (mean = 2.26
ha, n = 9), individually variable (range 0.82-3.70 ha) and partitioned into spatially distinct diurnal and
nocturnal components. The nocturnal range (mean = 1.00 ha,n = 6) incorporated forest edge and pasture
habitat, and was somewhat smaller than the diurnal range (mean = 1.67 ha, n = l0), which was located entirely
within the forest. Home-range shape was governed largely by the distance between the diurnal and
nocturnal ranges, which in turn was related to physical features within the habitat. Pademelons moved
slowly within and quickly between their diurnal and nocturnal ranges. Movement between these areas
occurred just after dusk and just prior to dawn. The diurnal rate of movement (m min-1) was generally
higher than the nocturnal rate, suggesting that pademelons moved extensively in the forest during the day,
and were relatively sedentary whilst on pasture at night.
