Review:
`a must for any one interested in social demography, population studies and population policy.′ -- Social Action April 1986
′The levels of analysis vary from in-depth village studies to secondary analysis of macrodemographic data, mostly from India. It is good to have research traditions sprouting from theoretical premises. That is where the strength of this book lies.... The merit of continued pursuit of theoretical hypothesis-testing makes the book more than worth while.′ -- Development and Change
