Abstract
This is a general review of developments in the application of mathematical models to the study of demography from the work of Alfred Lotka in stable population theory and life table analysis up to the present day. The author suggests that the two-sex problem remains a major challenge in mathematical demography. The need for more interdisciplinary cross-fertilization in this field is also recommended as is a greater concern with the applicability of the developments in mathematical demography to the problems of the real world.
