These are errors found in the pdf version dated September 2006. They have been corected in the html pages, which we try to keep always up-to-date.
In Chapter 3, Section 3.7.2, the comment following Table 3.16 should read "... and 0.03 standard deviations more (for a total of 0.04) if she does not." The point here is that total effect for women who want no more children is 0.0129 + 0.0305 = 0.0434 (not 0.0305). [gr]
In Section 3.3.3 in the paragraph starting "From the estimated logit effect of 1.049 and its standard error we can calculate a 95% confidence interval with boundaries (0.111, 1.266)." The boundaries should be (0.831, 1.267). The exponentiated values quoted later (2.30, 3.55) are correct. [Thanks to J. Marcus.]
In Chapter 7 the coefficients for 6-12 months are missing from Table 7.3.
The Web version here is OK. [Thanks for J. Colgan.]
