The graph below shows  estimated world population for the period 4000 BC  - 2000 AD.  Note that the logarithm of the world population and not actual population is  plotted on the vertical axis. This means, for example, that when the graph reaches 7 on the vertical scale, world population is 107 and when the graph reaches 9 on the vertical scale, world population is 109.

Log World Population

  -4000      -2000      0             2000

Why must the graph be interpreted with care? If the graph is not interpreted with care what misleading impression might one have of world population during the period 4000 BC - 2000 AD?  Why do you think that the graph was presented in this form?
