Summary, etc. This book is the result of an intensive study of four large states of India - Bihar, Madhya Pradesh, Rajasthan and Uttar Pradesh. This region has been known for its sluggish pace of development and yet has not been subjected to an in-depth analysis particularly in relation to its influence on the demographic situation in the country. The seven chapters of the book, whose authors represent multiple disciplines, deal with the fertility trends in these four states, the demand for children and the position of women in their socio-cultural contexts, demand creation strategies and their success in the region, the family welfare programme and its limitations, and finally the role of non-governmental bodies and the private sector. By analysing different aspects of demographic change in the four states under review, as against the situation in the rest of India, the authors establish the relevance of their findings in the national context and identify priority areas for policy and action.
