Doing the needful

"India's dilemma, argue the authors of this book, is that the "things it must do to save itself as a unified and democratic nation frequently run counter to the deep-seated, conflicting interests of obdurate and powerful constituencies." Dr. Narayana and Dr. Kantner unearth 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. Following a critical, comprehensive examination of programs (both public and private) and policies, they discuss prospects for future developments in the population arena and conclude with concrete policy recommendations."--BOOK JACKET.
