Size: 8vo-over 7¾"-9¾" tall; Trade Paperback in Fair Condition. Edited by Antony Flew. The cover shows a detail form "Feast of Venus" by Titian. Malthus classic study of population growth. This volume contains the full text of Malthus' original work of 1798, and "A Summary View", addressed in part to those who have not read the whole work. Malthus presents the ultimate demographic choice-starvation or restraint. His basic thesis is that there is a disparity between the potential rate of population growth and the potential rate of growth of the means of subsistence. He explores the question of why population does not always outstrip the supply of food, and examines possible checks on population growth.
