Explore the intricate dynamics of China's population in this essential new book by Nancy E. Riley. With a staggering one-fifth of the global population residing in China, understanding the profound shifts in demographics is crucial for anyone interested in contemporary social issues. This 224-page volume, published by John Wiley & Sons in 2016, delves into the factors reshaping China's population landscape, including the sharp decline in fertility rates, improved mortality rates, and significant rural-to-urban migration. Riley highlights how China's state-driven population policies are not merely enforced but are deeply interconnected with over sixty years of social organization and cultural evolution. Readers will find compelling insights into the unintended consequences of these policies, such as the alarming number of missing girls, challenges of an aging population, and the widening inequality gap between rural and urban communities. This book is essential reading for researchers, students, and anyone fascinated by China's demographic evolution. Whether you're studying social demography, economic impacts, or the socio-political landscape of China, this knowledge-packed work will provide foundational understanding and critical perspectives on one of the most pressing issues of our time.

Description:
China is home to a fifth of the world s inhabitants. For the last several decades, this huge population has been in flux: fertility has fallen sharply, mortality has declined, and massive rural-to-urban migration is taking place. The state has played a direct role in these changes, seeing population control as an important part of its intention to modernize the country.
In this insightful new work, Nancy E. Riley argues that China s population policies and outcomes are not simply imposed by the state onto an unresponsive citizenry, but have arisen from the social organization of China over the past sixty years. Riley demonstrates how China s population and population policy are intertwined and interact with other social and economic features. Riley also examines the unintended consequences of state directives, including the extraordinary number of missing girls, the rapid aging of the population, and an increase in inequality, particularly between rural and urban residents.
Ultimately, China s demographic story has to be understood as a complex, multi-pieced phenomenon. This book will be essential reading for researchers and students of China and social demography, as well as non-specialists interested in the changing nature of China s population.

Best Baby Sunscreen ☀️
Size: 6 Ounce (Pack of 2), Style: SPF 50 Spray
Putting sunscreen on a one year old is never an easy task. So I learned very quickly that the spray was a must. I’ve tried several different kinds and have had issues with eye irritation because I’m sure as y’all all know (that I definitely did not know) the first thing they do when you put sunscreen on their face is rub it immediately in their eyes. Although this one is not completely irritation free, I have noticed much less irritation to her eyes (or maybe she’s finally learning not to rub her eyes after I put it on idk 🤷🏼♀️). Regardless this is a great safe, easy to apply sunscreen for babies!

Thick & Protective
Size: 6 Ounce (Pack of 2), Style: SPF 50 Spray
I like this spray because it goes on thick and stays on for a while (even when playing in water). It does spray on white and requires a quick rub in, but I know my kids are protected from the sun when using this product.

Problem with the sprayer
Size: 6 Ounce (Pack of 1), Style: SPF 50 Spray
Great scent, feels soft after it's put on, but the spray is defective. I don't know if it's just this bottle or the lot, or a manufacturing issue overall, but the spray comes out fine initially and then doesn't, getting clogged temporarily till you stop using it for a while. Then it works fine again. Otherwise I would not have a problem buying it again, if I know it's just a one-off situation with this particular bottle.
