Suggest me a book: With how birth rates and fertility have been becoming more and more of a talking point about Japan, China, Germany, Italy, etc. is there a book out there that talks about this subject closer to our modern situation of it and how it’ll affect the future? I know about the book Population Bomb, but it seems quite old at this point and people on podcasts like Books that can Kill have stated it to be discreditable. It can be about US domestic demographics too if those also are out there! I’m a bit of a demographics nerd.
