About this book
Reviews
From the reviews:
“Fertility is often considered as a female concern by social scientists and even by policy makers. … Men, for their part, are considered to play a minor role in fertility decisions and behaviors. … a systematic attempt to compare male and female fertility across time and space. … Zhang’s monograph is a pioneering study that opens up further questions on male and female fertility.” (Jean-Marie Le Goff, European Journal of Population, Vol. 28, 2012)Authors and Affiliations
