Effect of family planning, economy and education on infant mortality.
"There is an assumption that family planning leads to less infant mortality, and [that a] lower rate of infant mortality will lead toward the evolution of small family.  The present paper, based on the data collected from 472 eligible couples from a suburban area of West Bengal, does not reveal any such strong relation between family planning and infant mortality.  The data have also been examined in the perspective of familial economic status and formal educational standard of the mothers concerned."
