Synopsis
Excerpt from The Population Explosion and Christian Responsibility
Every author is indebted to the work and help of others, and I am more indebted than most. Indeed, if I were to list my debts, I would hardly know where to begin; those to whom I am most in debted already know my gratitude. I must mention, however, my special obligation to my colleagues in the Commission of the Churches on International Affairs, both for their encouragement and for their willingness to shoulder an extra load that this report might be prepared. It need hardly-be added that I take personal responsibility for the views here expressed, and that these views in no way commit either the or its parent bodies, the World Council of Churches and the International Missionary Council.
I must also express appreciation for the competent help rendered by the staff of the Oxford University Press.

Print on DemandSeller: Forgotten Books, London, United Kingdom
Seller rating 5 out of 5 stars
Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This book delves into the complexities of the global population boom, a phenomenon that began around 1930 and has since accelerated at an alarming rate. The author meticulously examines the factors contributing to this surge, including advancements in international disease control and the resulting decline in death rates, particularly in underdeveloped regions. The narrative explores the profound implications of this population explosion, especially for developing nations already grappling with challenges like poverty, hunger, and limited resources. The author delves into potential solutions, including migration, increased food production, and the controversial topic of population control through family planning. This book goes beyond mere statistics, delving into the ethical and religious dimensions of responsible parenthood. The author examines the historical and theological perspectives of various world religions, including Judaism, Christianity (with its diverse branches), and Eastern Orthodoxy, on family planning and population control. The author's exploration of these multifaceted issues underscores the urgent need for a balanced and informed approach to population growth and family planning, recognizing the intricate interplay between human values, religious beliefs, and the realities of a rapidly changing world.
