EHRLICH, Paul R., and EHRLICH, Anne H. - The Population Explosion

New York, Simon & Schuster, 1990. Hardcover. Small 4to. Mustard cloth spine with silver lettering and grey paper over boards, pictorial dust jacket. 320pp. Fine/near fine. A lovely second printing of this scary study whose front jacket panel proclaims: "From Global Warming to Rain Forest Destruction, Famine, and Air and Water Pollution -- Why Overpopulation Is Our #1 Environmental Problem" -- more of the same by the scientist remembered for his 1968 bestseller "The Population Bomb." He boldly inscribes and signs the half-title page in black fineline "For Ibby and Bob / with warmest regards, / many thanks for your hospitality, / and extra thanks for the / Falcon ride! / Paul & Anne / Va. Hot Springs / May 11, 1990." Recipient "Bob" is Robert Malott (1926-2018), who was a noted Chicago business leader, CEO of FMC Corporation, Republican politico and philanthropist -- and laid in is a full-page Chicago newspaper review of this title, at top of which Malott pens "We're hosting at Business Council Friends of Ediths -- Bob," likely the gathering to which Ehrlich alludes in his inscription. .
