After a deconstruction of the past and present conditions of
scientific understanding of human sex-ratio at birth, the authors
are proposing a reconstruction of the dynamics of the phenomenon
based on stochastics. This is an attempt in renewing our links with
the oldest traditions of scholarly thinking, but too a kind of
well-tempered reflexivity in today's work of objectivization.
Appendixes get to the reader the first expression of a trend of the
sex ratio at birth to adjust towards balance between the sexes by
Condorcet in 1793-1794; a comparison of passages that Darwin
devoted in 1871 and 1874 to similar issues; and a sociological
attempt of Halbwachs published in 1933.
