Description
"Remember the population bomb? Longman, with the New America Foundation, says that in fact human population is likely to decline, not from catastrophe but because people stop having babies. Women would be forced to bear children, he says, workers would be forced to work, and Fundamentalists of every stripe would draw new strength. His solution is not a return to old ways, but to restore the economic rewards of family life so that those who nurture the young will be compensated for their contribution to preserving the species."--Booknews.
