Summary |
According to Kasun, the idea that humanity is multiplying at a phenomenal rate is one of the false dogmas of our times. From that notion springs the belief that unless population growth is immediately contained by every governmental and private method imaginable, mankind faces imminent disaster. These ideas form the basis for an enormous international population-control industry that involves billions of dollars of taxes as well as the full-time efforts of scores of private philanthropies. Embodied in their agenda is the sort of social planning that actually mandates draconian control over families, churches and other voluntary institutions around the globe. Point-by-point Kasun shatters the dogmas of the controllers--tenets that simply fall apart under close scrutiny and comparison with a mountain of data. ISBN 0-89870-191-0 (pbk.): $14.95. |
