Acknowledgments
This work could never have come to fruition had it not been for the efforts of the International Institute for Population Sciences in Mumbai and ORC Macro in Calverton, MD for collecting, compiling, and making available publicly the National Family Health Survey data used in this study. Many thanks are due to those who provided thoughtful comments on the work: Dr. Michael Koenig, Dr. Amy Tsui, and Dr. Norma Kanarek of Johns Hopkins University, Dr. Sanjay Mehendale of the National AIDS Research Institute, and Dr. Mona Sharan of the World Bank. The editorial contributions and the patience of the staff at Cambria Press, especially Sharon Berger, are greatly appreciated. Fellowship support was provided by the Department of Population, Family, and Reproductive Health of the Johns Hopkins University Bloomberg School of Public Health.
