Trade Review
"Ittmann's study will be essential reading for anyone interested in the nature of imperial governance, the population control movement, or the lasting legacies of imperialism and decolonization into the twenty-first century." American Historical Review "Viewing the empire through the lens of population allows Ittmann to see continuity across the great divide of decolonization, and provides insight into the colonial roots of many of our current ways of understanding global population and global issues." Journal of Modern History
