    T.M.A. $3.95 Too Many ASIANS is a compelling account for the non-specialist of the recent history, the mores, the eco- nomics that make today s population explosion in Asia so demanding of concerted world-wide understand- ing and action. John Robbins, formerly of the Cleveland Press, has traveled exten- sively through Asia and the Middle East studying the population dilem- mas of nineteen countries. This ab- sorbing and humane book contains up-to-the-minute reports on the noble but benign efforts at popula- tion control in India; the ruthless but potentially effective programs of the Red Chinese; the tenuous hopes for a cheap and effective contracep- tive pill; and the necessity for new kinds of economic aids, educational campaigns, and biological research. Too Many AsIAns puts the spot-_ light on a problem which is con- sidered by many even more grave than that of nuclear warfare.
