Fertility is the natural capability of giving life. As a measure,
the "Fertility Rate" is the number of children born per couple,
person or population. This is different to fecundity, which is
defined as the potential for reproduction (influenced by gamete
production, fertilisation and carrying a pregnancy to term). Human
fertility depends on factors of nutrition, sexual behaviour,
culture, instinct, endocrinology, timing, economics, way of life,
and emotions. Animal fertility has no fewer complexities, and may
display many interesting mechanisms. This book presents the latest
research from around the world in this field.
