Over the years, I have found that most people are either blissfully unaware of the enormous impact of population growth and change on their lives, or they are nearly overwhelmed whenever they think of population growth because they have heard so many horror stories about impending doom, or, increasingly, they have heard that population growth is ending and thus assume that the story has a happy ending. A lot is at stake here and my goal in this book is to provide you with as much insight as possible into the ways in which these demographic trends of growth, transition, and evolution affect your life in small and large ways. The growth in numbers (the bus hurtling toward what we hope is not a cliff) and the transitions and evolutions created in the process (the vortex created by the passing bus) have to be dealt with simultaneously, and our success as a human civilization depends on how well we do in this project.
