'A compelling argument for having more children' New Statesman

A population calamity is unfolding before our eyes. It started in parts of the developed world and is spreading to the four corners of the globe. There are just too few babies being born for humanity to replace itself.

Leading demographer Paul Morland argues that the consequences of this promise to be calamitous. Labour shortages, pensions crises and ballooning debt threaten to engulf us all, and sooner than we think. Unless we radically change our attitudes towards parenthood and embrace a new progressive pro-natalism, argues Morland, we face disaster.

'The yawning scarcity of children threatens humanity like no other crisis - yet it is scarcely recognized for what it is. Paul Morland makes the case. No-one Left is a tour-de-force no one can afford to miss' - Catherine Ruth Pakaluk, PhD, associate professor at The Catholic University of America and author of Hannah's Children: The Women Quietly Defying the Birth Dearth

'In No-One Left Paul Morland conveys the sense of urgency without sacrificing the complexity and sensitively this subject requires. Morland offers a guide to a subject which will come to dominate politics, economies and households over the coming years. A must read for anyone wanting to understand the forces shaping our world’ - Eliza Filby, author of Fuelling Gender Diversity

'The fall in fertility rates across the world and particularly in the developed nations has raised serious concerns about whether countries are preparing for its economic implications. True, demand for nature’s resources may ease but the likely negative impact on growth and on state finances will be substantial if the trend continues. Unless the trend is reversed, and sustainably, inward migration, as this hugely informative book by Paul Morland explains, can only help for a bit before countries sink into the final stage of the process where the absolute number of people starts to fall - something in fact which we are witnessing in some countries already. Fascinating!'- Vicky Pryce, Chief Economic Adviser, CEBR and former Joint Head of the UK Government Economic Service

‘Essential reading for reckoning with the demographic winter that is now upon us. Regardless of whether you agree fully with Morland's analysis and conclusions, this data-rich, highly readable book offers political and social leaders a careful and astute presentation of the full scale of the problem. Morland has done all of us a great service. We ignore him at our peril’ - Erika Bachiochi, Fellow, Ethics and Public Policy Center
