You should purchase the first book from the IMU Bookstore or online, for example, at www.amazon.com. There will also be a collection of journal articles to read. Almost all of the required article readings have been archived electronically either through this course website, through electronic journals, or through electronic reserve at the University of Iowa's Psychology Library For those articles on electronic reserve through the University of Iowa's Psychology Library, these may be accessed to print-out at http://libres.lib.uiowa.edu/psych/ under "Electronic Reserves" Course Listing – Bills 07B-176.

Also listed below are several
books for anyone who would like a good overview of demography. Some are pretty technical, some less so. I haven't placed an order for them, but they should be easily available, either from the IMU Bookstore or online.
