In this book, economics meets sociology in order to investigate one of the central social changes in history: the decline of fertility. The book demonstrates how social interactions can be used to extend the rational and individual-centered approach of economists to include social norms, bounded rationality, social learning, and changing values and attitudes. The combination of these elements yields new insights into the dynamics and determinants of fertility change. (OUP)
