Review Quotes

"Rational optimists are history's heroes. They accurately

identify credible threats, and then lead us to overcome those

threats by focusing on solutions. In Demographic Deception,

Whitney makes it clear that we have very different population

challenges than we think. And then he guides us to

pragmatic solutions and a bright future."

-Bert Jacobs

Co-founder and CEO, The Life is Good Company

"In Demographic Deception, Whitney raises an incredibly

important issue for the future of the world economy. Then

he asks the right questions-what does a decreasing world

population mean for labor and capital markets and, ultimately,

economic growth and inequality? I hope this book

gets our society to start the process of getting to the answers."

-Geoffrey Sanzenbacher, PhD

Associate professor of the practice, Boston College, Department

of Economics

"Whitney's Demographic Deception does a surgical dive into

the veins of demographics and challenges the status quo to

evoke discussion and discourse to ensure the future of nations

and global economies."

-Kris Meyer

Hollywood producer, CEO, MuddHouse Media

"Like that memorable college professor who's teaching style

makes crystal clear even the most convoluted subject matter,

Dustin Whitney debunks with surgical precision the myth

of overpopulation. His passion for this is contagious, and

he does it with an alluring conversational style that makes

the material not only digestible, but quite appetizing in

the traditionally confusing and dry world of demographic

data. Unafraid to take on this rhetoric that there are too

many humans, he comprehensively educates the reader on

this topic about which few of us know much and explains to

us how and why we should know more."

-Jason Fanuele, MD

Assistant professor, The Warren Alpert Medical School, Brown

University

"Dustin Whitney looks at a global trend that will have

distinct local implications. A future of declining population

challenges common strategies about competing for people

and talent to build stronger communities and economies.

Whitney's work will give anyone interested in stronger communities

and economic development some fresh perspectives

on how to approach the future."

-Peter Forman

President and CEO, Chamber of commerce, SSMA

"Demographic Deception is a very thought-provoking book

that shines an honest, common sense light on the forces of

ignorance and deceit manipulating society. Dustin Whitney

takes a careful approach, using compelling good news/bad

news segments, in debunking the myths about generational

divides promoted by special interests. This fascinating

material underscores the need for open public debate to

counterbalance the deceit and ensure the best possible future

outcome.

Demographic Deception deserves to be shared widely as an

illuminating guidebook to help leaders and citizens re-think

establishment groupthink and secure our shared destiny. I

cannot wait to buy copies for others who will benefit from

Whitney's urgent wakeup call."
