В публикации проводится сравнительный обзор демографической эволюции населения Средиземноморья. В ней рассматриваются все демографические процессы с 1950 года, такие как рождаемость, смертность, рост численности населения, демографическое старение и возрастная структура населения. В книге обсуждаются основные демографические изменения и их последствия для Средиземноморского региона, а также описываются социально-экономические и социальные возможности, такие как серебряная экономика, улучшение здоровья населения и прогресс в образовании.
