Building the Population Bomb
Merchant, Emily Klancher (Assistant Professor of Science and Technology Studies, Assistant Professor of Science and Technology Studies, University of California, Davis)
Building the Population Bomb carefully examines how the rise of the world's human population came to be understood as problematic by scientists and governments across the globe. It challenges our assumption of population growth as inherently problematic by demonstrating how it is our anxieties over population growth-and not population growth itself-that have detracted from the pursuit of economic, environmental, and reproductive justice.
