Summary

Fewer tells a monumental human story, largely ignored, but which promises to starkly change the human condition in the years to come. Never before have birth and fertility rates fallen so far, so fast, so low, for so long, in so many places. Ben Wattenberg shows how and why this has occurred and explains what it means for the future.

Author Biography

Ben J. Wattenberg is a senior fellow at the American Enterprise Institute.
