The Whimper After the Bang

quote [ I recently read Harry Harrison’s Make Room! Make Room! (1966), the book on which the Charlton Heston movie Soylent Green (1973) is based. My edition features an introduction by Paul Erhlich, solemnly noting that the nightmarish dystopia depicted of a vastly overpopulated New York City is less a work of science fiction than a sneak preview. ]

Ah, it's just never right for these over- and underpopulation doomers.
