As a postscript, I found it humorous that the population actually did grow as fast as the author stated it would. The only difference is that food and other resources actually became MORE plentiful due to improvements in technology and economy of scale efficiencies. The liberal alarmists always get it wrong.

I can't remember where I heard it or who said it but I've heard that, thanks to our 80 to 90 year life span and the limited number of years women are able to bear children, the maximum population the earth could ever achieve was something like 10 billion people.

And, as you said, there are plentiful natural resources and advances in technology to feed, clothe and shelter that many people.
