1990
This is an exploratory analysis of seasonal variations in fertility mortality and marriage in Taiwan from 1906 to 1943 based on data from Japanese colonial records primarily household registers. Comparisons are made with Japan and China. The results indicate that "the seasonality of vital events is a curious mix of custom conscious planning and natural cycles." (EXCERPT)
