Overview
How will technology handle the pressure that overpopulation places on the environment and global resources? Can we adapt by enlarging the earth's "carrying capacity" or have we reached a crisis point? This book presents historical perspectives on this issue and analyzes the ethical implications of remedies such as voluntary family planning and incentives aimed at limiting family size.Discusses the economic, political, and moral aspects of global overpopulation and the subsequent pressures placed on the world's natural resources and life support systems.
