Description:"As a methodological study, it is a pioneering effort in survey methodology on population, contraception and family welfare. The issues raised are the issues that have been confronting the government for a very long time.... The book is a welcome addition to the existing literature particularly on survey methodology, application of techniques and fineness in analysis in addition to substantial issues. It is a must for planners, programme functionaries and researchers in the area of population and related issues. It is one among the four or five worthy books in this area in recent periods for which the authors need to be complimented. The findings in the book are relevant not only for Gujarat but for other states in the country as well." --Deccan Herald Contraceptive Use and Fertility in India presents the key results of a study of contraceptive use and fertility in the state of Gujarat and examines the implications of this study on the country as a whole. Beginning with an introduction to contraceptive use and fertility, the authors present an overview of the demographic characteristics of Gujarat and the pattern of mortality and fertility prevailing there. The authors then discuss vital issues such as the degree of consistency between the reported level of couple protection rate (CPR), the sources of inconsistency between these estimates, the relationship between the reported CPR and fertility, and the program and nonprogram factors that could be responsible for district-level differentials in CPR. The book concludes by examining the implications of key findings and how they will effect the formulation of a population policy and family planning program. Students and researchers in the following fields will find Contraceptive Use and Fertility in India useful and extremely informative: demography, family planning and welfare, population studies, policy studies, development studies and economics.Contents:1.
