With the collaboration of an international panel of fifty-seven experts, authors William Petersen and Renee Petersen have compiled a glossary of more than 400 key demographic terms. The glossary begins with a translation from English into each of the world's principal research languages: French, Spanish, Italian, German, Japanese, Chinese, and Russian. The translations from each of these languages into English follow the same order. When a word in any language can be ambiguous, it is marked with adj. for adjective, f. for female or feminine, m. for male or masculine, n. for noun, pl. for plural, and v. for verb.William Petersen is the author of 'Dictionary of Demography: Multilingual Glossary', published 1985 under ISBN 9780313251399 and ISBN 0313251398.
