Publisher Description: This book examines the historical and discursive construction of India's 'population problem' through the shared concerns of British colonial officials and Indians regarding the high birth and death rates, maternal health, food supply, the quality of India's population, and conceptions of development that incorporated economic planning and a scientific modernity. |
