The discussions center around three fundamental questions: Is the human population growing at a rate which threatens the standards of living to which most of tits individuals aspire? Is the genetic composition of the population tending in directions which are harmful to the common good? What can and should be done, if the answer to either of the foregoing questions is yes?\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eThe chapters, by nine different contributors, are based on the papers given at a conference on population problems held at the University of Minnesota in 1957.
