DEMOGRAPHY (from Gr. Sios, people, and ypasbety, to write)

This article appears in Volume V08, Page 5 of the Encyclopedia Britannica.

Encyclopedia Britannica - Main :: DEM-DIO
DEMOGRAPHY (from Gr. Sios, people, and ypasbety, to write) , the science which deals with the
statistics
  of
health
  and
disease, of the
physical
 , intellectual, physiological and economical aspects of births, marriages and mortality. The first to employ the word was Achille Guillard in his Elements de statistique humaine ou demographie comparee (1855), but the meaning which he attached to it was merely that of the science which treats of the
condition
 , general
movement
  and progress of
population
  in civilized countries, i.e. little more than what is comprised in the
ordinary
  vital
statistics
 , gleaned from
census
  and registration reports. The word has come to have a much wider meaning and may now be defined as that branch of statistics which deals with the
life
 -conditions of peoples.
