Does sex-selective abortion have an impact on gender differentials
in child morbidity and mortality in India? If prenatal
discrimination against girls has been substituting for postnatal
discrimination, then eliminating sex-selective abortion may lead to
an increase in excess female infant and child mortality. In this
careful and thorough study that employs data from a 20-year period,
Dr. Mary Elizabeth Shepherd investigates the issues behind the sex
ratio imbalance in India. This timely work not only has critical
implications for India, but its insightful findings will also be
highly informative for many countries or societies dealing with sex
ratio imbalances.
