Anderson, John E. – Phylon, 1977
Examines trends in black and white fertility since 1920, differences in family planning between the groups, and the relationship of family planning to black/white fertility differences. Finds that unplanned out of wedlock births are the most important factor affecting differences in the fertility rates between blacks and whites. (Author/GC)
