Economic analysis of population growth in the Islamic world with special reference to Egypt.

Abstract

Population growth in predominantly Islamic countries is explored, with a focus on Egypt. The author finds that "if its current rate of increase continues...Egypt's population will increase by an average of one and a half million a year requiring food, housing, education, health services, and other needs." The case is made for the immediate implementation of an effective family planning program.
