I thought his book would go into some speculation about possible causes for the population decline (such as biological issues), but it mostly focused on the sociological aspects.
I found it interesting that every country is going through the same issue, and it was nice to hear all the different accounts of women in different countries. However, I felt like this book was too surface level to really address the real effects of a population decline, how it might affect society as a whole.
This book also feels very relevant even now, especially in the current political climate with the rise of alt-right nativists everywhere in the western world.
