Description: A report reviewing the questions: Can the world's increasing population be supplied with adequate food, fuel, and raw materials? Can the less fortunate of those now living be brought up to a decent minimum standard? Can the hopes of advanced countries for still higher standards be satisfied? Can the thirty or so million people added each year to world population be supplied with all their requirements? Can all these things be done together, and can they be done soon? How nearly attainable is a balance between world populationa nd world resources? If attainable, how can it be maintained?
