概要	Seeks to explain how the Earth's presently enormous population manages to exist and even thrive, against the predictions of leading thinkers of 200 years ago such as Thomas Malthus and Adam Smith. Dra...s on sources including traveler's accounts, diaries, and medical texts to compare English and Japanese practices relating to war, famine, the disposal of human waste, housing, and bathing, looking at their effects on health, and shows how both nations controlled fertility though marriage and sexual patterns, biological and contraceptive factors, abortion, and infanticide.
