Birth Control Practice in Great Britain
Sex differentials in mortality in Sri Lanka
In Sri Lanka in the 1920s female mortality exceeded male mortality in almost all age groups. Only in infancy and late middle age did male mortality exceed female mortality. Proportionately the greatest female excess was in the childbearing ages. Mortality fell very substantially between 1921 and 1971. Throughout most of this period the same basic pattern of sex differentials persisted. Between 1921 and 1953 the relative position of women worsened…
Is there a Connection between a Woman's fecundity and that of her mother?
Data on the fertility of mothers and daughters in 10,931 mother–daughter pairs were obtained from family reconstitution studies based on English parish registers between the sixteenth and nineteenth centuries. These data indicate that there is no association between the fecundity of daughters and that of their mothers.

Family Size from the Child's Point of View
The mean size of sibship in which children are reared is greaterthan the mean number of children born to those children's parents' generation. In this paper, family size is considered from the child's point of view, and estimates made of how many siblings (and some other relatives) children have, using data from a survey carried out in Great Britain in the late 1960s. The size of the ‘family’ experienced by children is largerthan may at first sig…
Fertility change in Sri Lanka since the war
Using statistics from the censuses of 1946, 1953, 1963 and 1971, and from vital registration, changes in fertility in Sri Lanka as a whole, and in its 19 administrative districts, were examined. For the whole island the level of fertility in 1953 was about the same as in 1946. However, this apparent stability concealed quite substantial increases in fertility in a number of districts. It is argued that these were very probably caused by the eradi…
A consideration of Some retrospective data on breast-feeding in Great Britain
Some retrospective data collected in a survey carried out in 1967–68 show that the practice of breast-feeding declined markedly in Great Britain between the 1930s and the 1960s. Throughout, women higher up the social-educational scale breast-fed more than those lower down. Women marrying before the age of 20 (as well as those marrying at age 30 or older) tended to breast-feed less than those marrying in their twenties; for the former, the explana…
