Bright and clean. Corners sharp. Very close to 'As New'. NOT a Remainder, Book-Club, or Ex-Library. 8vo. (8.65 x 5.35 x 0.45 inches). 196 pages. Index. Language: English. Weight: 9 ounces. Paperback: Pictorial Wraps. Elmer Pendell (1894 1982) was an American eugenicist and sociologist. Pendell's 1945 book Population Roads to Peace or War argued that democracy would be imperilled if population growth did not slow. A 1947 follow-up to the work, Human Breeding and Survival: Population Roads to Peace or War, advocated population limitation as a means of reducing social problems such as hunger. Why Civilizations Self-Destruct was cited favorably by white supremacist. David Duke.
