"Reproductive Decision-Making in a Macro-Micro Perspective is an edited volume ... that focuses on the gap between the desired number of children and actual fertility in a large number of European countries. ... Reproductive Decision-Making is worth reading for those interested in family demography, from demographers and sociologists to policy makers, who want to become familiar with the REPRO project. All chapters are interesting in their own right and demonstrate various ways to analyse reproductive decision-making." (Paul P. P. Rotering, European Journal of Population, Vol. 31, 2015)
