Show Notes
I just finished an eye-opening book, Countdown, by Alan Weisman. It covers population.
Weisman traveled to and reported on about a dozen places' views and practices on population and family planning.
In this episode, I read a few passages that I found shocking. I barely scratch the book's surface, but I believe you'll find the sections equally noteworthy. I recommend reading the rest to understand this integral part of our world.
