This is a study of the social and cultural roots of the persistent failure of India's attempts to intervene in the realm of population control and related issues of social welfare. The book examines both public and private programmes and policies and concludes with a discussion of prospects for future developments in the population arena and concrete policy recommendations.
Indian society on the threshold of the 21st century; India's population growth in historical perspective; the search for policy; the family planning programme - organization and operation; programme performance; new wine in new bottles.
