The reader in population and development

Trama

In 1930, the global population stood at two billion; by 2000, it will exceed six billion. In the same period, the value of the global economy will have multiplied ten-fold. In this Reader, the editors present a collection of seminal articles that explore these issues, drawn from a literate middle ground lying between the simplified popular treatments that characterize much of the debate, and the highly technical specialist literature.
