Opis

By 2100, the human population may exceed 11 billion. Having recently surpassed 7. 5 billion, it has trebled since 1950.

Recenzje

This important and accessible work persuasively addresses difficult normative questions about population control, philosophically rejecting common arguments which seek to put any discussion of population policy off the table while remaining sensitive to the historical and political context motivating such concerns.
Elizabeth Cripps, University of Edinburgh

An informed, subtle and revealing analysis.
Sarah Conly, author of One Child
