This book offers a comprehensive study of the complexities of
newborn survival in resource-poor regions, using the state of Bihar
(India) as a case study. It provides important lessons for other
low-performing countries, in similar socioeconomic contexts, where
newborn survival is a major challenge. The volume opens with a
brief account of the trends and regional variations in neonatal
mortality. The empirical verification of socio-cultural, economic
and health system barriers and the state interventions that affect
newborn survival are subsequently explored. Innovative strategies
are then proposed to scale up maternal newborn and child health
(MNCH) services and improve neonatal health outcomes. Addressing
this issue through appropriate policy action is essential to
achieving Sustainable Development Goal-3, "Good Health and
Well-being". This book will therefore appeal to public health
scholars, professionals and policymakers interested in improving
outcomes in low-income regions.
