Historický atlas obyvatelstva českých zemí je jedním z prvních děl hodnotících prostorové aspekty téměř stoletého vývoje obyvatelstva na dnešním území Česka. V celkem dvanácti kapitolách jsou ve vývojovém srovnání představena témata jako migrace, demografická, ekonomická a kulturní struktura, sociální status, kriminalita nebo volby. K zachycení populačního vývoje a jeho prostorové diferenciace jsou poněkud netradičně využívána hůře dostupná historická statistická data.
