This book requires the reticent, the fearful, and the intimidated to think about a subject they have previously wiggled their way around--too many people. Overpopulation in the U.S., what causes it, and what must be done about it is a subject that Ed Hartman, author of The Population Fix, approaches head on. –Diana Hull, Ph.D. |

FOREWORD
If you are not already a believer in a smaller, more manageable, and environmentally healthy community, state, nation, and planet, The Population Fix will alert you that no other subject is more important to the quality of life. Overpopulation is certain to narrow your choices and diminish the well-being of those who come after you.
So before the forces of demography, politics, and economic policy etch that unfortunate outcome in stone, nothing is more urgent for everyone to grasp than the immediate need for a change in direction. The author makes that case exceptionally well, explaining what can and must be done.
The Population Fix is divided into digestible segments and the ingredients are infused with a deep understanding. At regular intervals, the author acknowledges and anticipates readers' questions and poses important queries of his own. As a result, The Population Fix takes you on an important intellectual safari and the author warns you about the tigers out there ready to eat you alive if you interfere with their real or perceived need for perpetual growth.
As a hopeful sign Ed Hartman points out many political leaders are reconsidering which side of this debate they want to espouse. Will they support individuals and institutions with vested--and often criminal--interests in rampant growth, or will they support the men and women who put them into office--and who can remove them from office?
After reading The Population Fix, I believe you will want to add your voice to this discussion. And once you have made up your mind, resolve to take action, firmly and quickly, knowing that your participation will make all the difference in the world!
