Includes bibliographical references (p. 247-252)and index.
The book, while recognizing how much has been achieved since the start of the industrial revolution, challenges the view that much better results could not have been attained. It argues that with more appropriate policies, but without undue risks with inflation, economic growth could have been much higher and the use of human resources much more effective than they have been. The outcome would have been higher standards of living, lower population pressures and far more containable environmental problems -- (Back Cover)
