1. Demography of Bengal from a Historical Perspective -- 2. Explaining fertility decline in Greater Bengal: A spatial approach to testing the diffusion hypothesis -- 3. Contraceptive behavior among Bengalese: Pattern, preferences and practicality -- 4. Case Study: Acceptability, uptake and safety of postpartum intrauterine contraceptive device in a tertiary care hospital in eastern India -- 5. Case Study: Wombs for Money: Commercial Surrogacy through Kolkata’s Window -- 6. Case Study: Infertility Treatment in Kolkata: A qualitative Study -- 7. Socio-economic determinants of infant and child mortality: A study of Bengali speaking community in eastern India and Bangladesh -- 8. Decomposing areas in infant mortality: Treatment vs. Comparison in Matlab, Bangladesh.

This book highlights historical and current perspectives on population issues in the Bengali-speaking states of India (i.e., West Bengal, Tripura, Assam) and Bangladesh and explores three core population dynamics: fertility, mortality–morbidity and development. Furthermore, it presents a selection of revealing cases from area-specific micro-studies, mainly conducted in West Bengal and Bangladesh. The book covers various demographic and health issues in these two regions, which are similar in terms of several sociocultural aspects, yet dissimilar in terms of their policies and programs. Adopting an integrated approach that combines various disciplines and perspectives, it explores highly topical issues such as social inequality, religious difference and mental health. The book is intended for a broad readership interested in population studies, sociology and development, including academics, researchers, planners and policymakers.
