This burgeoning population has sparked widespread concern, leading to intense public policy debates and a growing recognition of the intricate interplay between population and technology. The papers presented in this book stem from a symposium titled \"Technological Prospects and Population Trends\" organized during the 150th National Annual Meeting of the American Association for the Advancement of Science in New York City in May 1984. The central theme of the book revolves around elucidating the profound impact that technological development and population change have on each other. By exploring how anticipated or foreseeable technological advancements can shape population trends and related socioeconomic developments, the contributors offer a diverse yet interconnected range of perspectives on a matter that is rapidly emerging as one of the most pressing concerns of our time.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eDrawing upon expertise from various fields, including demography, agriculture, education, contraception, longevity, and health care, the distinguished authors present a comprehensive examination of the complex relationships between population and technology. They examine how population growth influences technological advancements, the impact of technology on population distribution and behavior, and the ways in which demographic changes shape the development of new technologies. The book serves as a valuable resource for researchers, policymakers, and individuals interested in understanding the multifaceted dynamics that shape our world today. By examining the interplay between population and technology, it sheds light on the challenges and opportunities that arise as societies navigate the rapidly evolving landscape of global population growth.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 440g\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eISBN-13\u003c\/strong\u003e: 9780367305086\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Shulph Ink","offers":[{"title":"Paperback \/ softback","offer_id":44105064677626,"sku":"9780367305086","price":40.98,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0522\/4297\/2845\/products\/1659091945027_book.jpg?v=1659344127","url":"https:\/\/shulphink.com\/products\/technological-prospects-and-population-trends-9780367305086","provider":"Shulph Ink","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
