Excerpt from Population and World Power
The years have served us in making the subject of population and power of such wide interest, much wider than it was ten years ago, and it is to be hoped that the years have also helped us, the writers, to understand more of the world.
This Work is the result of close collaboration between a demographer and a specialist in international rela tions. It would be impossible at this late date to deter mine whose ideas were whose, and each of us will gladly share whatever credit and blame this work receives.
We owe a debt of gratitude to the many people who helped and encouraged us, and to the Carnegie Corpora tion, which generously gave financial assistance through the Topical Studies in International Relations at Co lumbia University, where this work originated.
