NPG Fellow David Simcox’s Review

“Unfortunately, with an endless supply of competing crises to capture both rich and poor nations’ attention and resources, governments are likely to lose focus . The world community will not do nearly enough to prevent massive overpopulation unless two things occur. First, nations become sufficiently convinced of the severity and the urgency of the population crisis. Second, governments gain a realistic view of what is needed to resolve the crisis in time.”

“A very important book. Unlike most, it rightly sees overpopulation as a threat to the human spirit as well as to our physical well-being.” Virginia Abernethy, Ph.D. Editor, Population and Environment Journal
