Malthus, T[homas] R[obert]
An Essay Concerning the Principle of Population; or a View of its Past and Present Effects on Human Happiness; with an Inquiry into our Prospects Respecting the Future Removal or Mitigation of the Evils Which It Occasions
London: Printed for J. Johnson in St Paul's Church-Yard by T. Bensley 1807. Fourth edition. Octavo 22cm in two volumes. In contemporary brown calf seven sets of double gilt rules to spine titled in gilt on red leather spine label numbered on black leather spine labels blind tool to board edges all edges sprinkled grey; plain endpapers; vol. I: i-xvi 1-580pp; vol. II: i-viii 1-484 60pp. Sturdy copies much rubbed vol. I slightly cocked lower front joint of vol. I and upper front joint of vol. II cracking vol. II lacking spine label scratch to upper board of vol. II endleaves and some prelims foxed but otherwise internally free from soil: Good or better. <br /> <br /> The fourth edition of Malthus' widely influential discussion of overpopulation. Malthus 1766-1834 argued that population "increases geometrically while food supplies increase only arithmetically" and that some misery was inevitable unless population growth could be restrained. He proposed "moral restraint" as a solution. Many of his theories have now been largely rejected but "the Essay was highly influential in the progress of thought in early nineteenth-century Europe" and "his influence on social policy whether for good or evil was considerable." The first edition was shorter; "later editions were considerably altered and grew bulkier as Malthus defended his views against a host of critics" Printing and the Mind of Man. KRESS B.5219. GOLDSMITHS 19373. PMM 251 1st edn. Printed for J. Johnson in St Paul's Church-Yard, by T. Bensley unknown

Malthus, Thomas Robert [TR] T R
An Essay on the Principle of Population as It Affects the Future Improvement of Society.
London: T. Bensley 1803. Rare second edition of this cornerstone text of modern economics. Quarto bound in full diced morocco raised bands gilt titles and tooling to the spine front and rear panels marbled endpapers. In very good condition. An exceptional presentation. “Malthus was one of the founders of modern economics. His Essay was originally the product of a discussion on the perfectibility of society with his father who urged him to publish. Thus the first edition published anonymously was essentially a fighting tract but later editions were considerably altered and grew bulkier as Malthus defended his views against a host of critics… The Essay was highly influential in the progress of thought in early 19th-century Europe and his influence on social policy was considerable… Both Darwin and Wallace clearly acknowledged Malthus as a source of the idea of ‘the struggle for existence†PMM 251.

MALTHUS, T R
An Essay on the Principle of Population; or a View of its Past and Present Effects on Human Happiness; With an Inquiry into Our Prospects Respecting the Future Removal or Mitigation of the Evils which it Occasions
London: Printed for J. Johnson. by T. Bensley. 1803. Second edition or "A New Edition Very Much Enlarged". 4to. viii iv 610 pp. 19th century half speckled calf over marbled boards gilt rules to the spine gilt lettered green label all edges marbled. Binding expertly resewn and the joints neatly repaired occasional foxing mostly mild an attractive copy. First published anonymously in 1798 Malthus drew upon the works of Hume and Smith amongst others to explain his conservative conception of population control. "The central idea of the essay. was a simple one. The population of a community. increases geometrically while food supplies increase only arithmetically. The 'Essay' was highly influential in the progress of thought in early 19th century Europe. it came at the right time to harden the existing feeling against the Poor Laws" - Printing and the Mind of Man 251. Citing examples from other societies and sources not hitherto known to him Malthus rewrote and extended his essay significantly enough for him to consider this an entirely "new work" in his introduction to this edition. He expanded and refined his theory of positive checks on population growth those that increase the death rate and negative ones those that inhibit birth rates slightly softening his tone by arguing for greater moral restraint as opposed to the bleaker and cruder mechanisms of hunger disease and war to keep population numbers down and therefore keep overall prosperity up. Despite being hugely influential in economic and philosophical terms Malthus has always been a divisive figure and his arguments remain controversial to this day. London: Printed for J. Johnson... by T. Bensley... unknown

MALTHUS, Thomas Robert (1766-1834)
An Essay on the Principle of Population; or A view of its past and present effects on human happiness; with an inquiry into our prospects respecting the future removal or mitigation of the evils which it occasions. By T.R. Malthus A.M. late fellow of Jesus College Cambridge. In two volumes. Vol. I-II. First American edition from the third London edition
Washington City: Roger Chew Weightman 1809. 2 volumes 8vo. 8 1/4 x 5 inches. Vol. 1 xvi 510 xxxiv pp.; Vol. 2 vii 542 pp. Contemporary tree calf skilfully rebacked. Spines gilt ruled forming six compartments lettering pieces in the second compartmenrs<br/> <br/> Provenance: Possibly John Barclay 1749-1824 former Mayor of Philadelphia from 1791 to 1793<br/> <br/> First American edition of a fundamental text of Modern Economics.<br/> <br/> Thomas Robert Malthus was an English economist cleric and scholar influential in the fields of political economy and demography. Malthus came to prominence for his publication of the present work first published in 1798. Between 1798 and 1826 Malthus published six versions of the essay updating each edition to incorporate new material to address criticism and to convey changes in his own perspectives on the subject. Writing in response to Jean-Jacques Rousseau and William Godwin specifically their approaches to the improvement of society Malthus opposed the optimistic view in 18th-century Europe that saw society as improving and in principle as perfectible. Malthus saw population growth as inevitable whenever conditions improved thereby precluding real progress towards a utopian society: "The power of population is indefinitely greater than the power in the earth to produce subsistence for man." Malthus laid the "theoretical foundation of the conventional wisdom that has dominated the debate both scientifically and ideologically on global hunger and famines for almost two centuries" Daoud. He remains a much-debated writer.<br/> <br/> Shaw 17975; Daoud Ade "Robbins and Malthus on scarcity abundance and sufficiency: The missing sociocultural element" in American Journal of Economics and Sociology 69.4: 1206-1229; Harvey David "Population Resources and the Ideology of Science"in Economic Geography 503: 256277.

London T. Bensley for J. Johnson 1803. . Second edition substantially revised; 4to 27.5 x 22 cm; a few pencil annotations C4 cancelled and signed C3 title neatly tipped on to following leaf small chip lower edge b2 occasional spotting; modern half brown morocco gilt spine in 6 compartments contrasting red morocco lettering-piece very good; viii 4 610pp.<br /> The second edition substantially revised and in essence a 'new work' in which Malthus defends his views against a host of critics Preface.<br /><br />'The central idea of the essay and the hub of Malthusian theory was a simple one. The population of a community Malthus suggested increases geometrically while food supplies increased only arithmetically. If the natural increase in population occurs the food supply becomes insufficient and the size of the population is checked by 'misery' that is the poorest sections of the community suffer disease and famine. The Essay was highly influential in the progress of thought in early nineteenth-century Europe' PMM.<br /><br />In this enlarged edition Malthus made clear what was only implicit in the first that prudential restraint should if humanly possible be 'moral restraint' that is delayed marriage accompanied by strictly moral pre-marital behaviour although he admitted that moral restraint would not be easy and that there would be occasional failures. Whereas in the first edition he had said that all the checks to population would involve either misery or vice in the second edition he attempted to lighten this 'melancholy hue' first edition p.iv and 'to soften some of the harshest conclusions of the first essay' second edition p.vii by arguing that moral restraint if supported by an education emphasising the immorality of bringing children into the world without the means of supporting them would tend to increase rather than diminish individual happiness.<br /><br />'His work was an important influence on both Darwin and Wallace in their formulation of the concept of natural selection. It also had a profound influence on the decrease in size of families down to the present time' Garrison-Morton.<br /> Cf.PMM 251; Garrison-Morton 1693; Goldsmiths 18640; Kress B.4701. London, T.

An Essay On The Principle Of Population: Or A View Of Its Past And Present Effects On Human Happiness; With An Inquiry Into Our Prospects Respecting The Future Removal Or Mitigation Of The Evils Which It Occasions. First American From The Third London Edition.
Washington City: Roger Chew Weightman 1809. First American Edition based on the revised and enlarged third London edition of 1806 of one of the most important and influential works in the history of economic and social thought. “’Malthus’s law’ that population increases at a greater rate than the means of subsistence was one of the first and is still one of the most widely debated of modern economic theories. The work aroused a storm of controversy since Malthus held that checks on the growth of population would be necessary a theory which is still not finally extinguished. Malthus has exercised a strong influence not merely in economics but in the whole realm of social theory.†PMM Goldsmiths’ 19819. Kress B.5542. Palgrave II pp. 668-677. Shaw & Shoemaker 17975. cfNCBEL III 1294. cfGarrison & Morton 1693. cfPrinting and the Mind of Man. 251. 2 Volumes. 8vo. pp. xvi 510 xxxivindex; vii 1 542. complete with half-titles. contemporary tree calf rebacked several small library rubberstamps some foxing & browning throughout as usual – more extensive on outer leaves. elala6131 Washington City: Roger Chew Weightman, 1809 unknown

MALTHUS, Thomas Robert
An Essay on the Principle of Population;
London: printed for J. Johnson by T. Bensley 1803. Malthus softens his conclusions The Great Quarto edition notionally the second edition following the first of 1798 but so substantially enlarged rewritten and re-titled as to be effectively a new book. The Essay was one of the most influential works in the history of economic thought arguing the link between food supply and population size and the inevitability of famine and suffering once population exceeded its limits. "For today's readers living in a post-Malthus era the world's population problems are well known and serious but no longer sensational. It is difficult therefore to appreciate the radical and controversial impact made by the Essay at the time of publication. It challenged the conventional notion that population growth is an unmixed blessing. It discussed prostitution contraception and other sexual matters. And it gave vivid descriptions of the horrendous consequences of overpopulation and of the brutal means by which populations are checked" ODNB. In the second edition Malthus "made clear what was only implicit in the first that prudential restraint should if humanly possible be 'moral restraint' - that is delayed marriage accompanied by strictly moral pre-marital behaviour although he admitted that moral restraint would not be easy and that there would be occasional failures. Whereas in the first edition he had said that all the checks to population would involve either misery or vice in the second edition he attempted to lighten this 'melancholy hue' and 'to soften some of the harshest conclusions of the first essay' by arguing that moral restraint if supported by an education emphasizing the immorality of bringing children into the world without the means of supporting them would tend to increase rather than diminish individual happiness" ODNB. Quarto 269 x 205 mm pp. viii 4 610. Contemporary tree calf rebacked and recornered with original spine laid down spine gilt in compartments with black morocco label. Twentieth-century bookplate of Virginia bibliophile and historian Christopher Clark Geest. Scattered light foxing else a very good copy. Einaudi 3668; Goldsmiths' 18640; Kress B.4701. unknown

Although being the second edition after the anonymously printed first of 1798 it is so significantly altered revised and expanded that it is considered a new work rather than a new edition. Malthus himself also thought of it as such. It is nearly four times the length of the 1798 essay the title has been changed the title of the first: "An Essay on the Principle of Population as it Affects the Future Improvement of Society with Remarks on the Speculation of Mr. Godwin M. Condorcet and Other Writers" and it is published with Mathus' name as the author not anonymously. All later editions were minor revisions of this heavily expanded and altered second one. "In the course of this inquiry I found that much more had been done than I had been aware of when I first published the essay. The poverty and misery arising from a too rapid increase of population had been distinctly seen and the most violent remedies proposed so long ago as the times of Plato and Aristotle. And of late years the subject had been treated in such a manner by some of the French economists occasionally by Montesquieu and among our own writers by Dr. Franklin Sir James Steuart Mr. Arthur Young and Mr. Townsend as to create a natural surprise that it had not excited more of the publick attention" Preface to the second edition p. IV. The controversial views because of which the work became so influential are most provocative and eyeopening in the second edition in which Malthus for instance for the first time advocates moral restraint meaning sexual abstinence and late marriage and elaborately explains his comparison between the increase of population and food. "The "Essay" was highly influential in the progress of thought in the early nineteenth-century Europe. "Parson" Malthus as Cobbett dubbed him was for many a monster and his views were often grossly misinterpreted. But his influence on social policy whether for good or evil was considerable. The Malthusian theory of population came at the right time to harden the existing feeling against the Poor Laws and Malthus was a leading spirit behind the Poor Law Amendment Act of 1834." PMM 251. Thomas Robert Malthus 1766-1834 called the "enfant terrible" of the economists was an English demographer statistician and political economist who is best known for his groundbreaking views on population growth presented in his "Essays on the Principle of Population" which is based on his own prediction that population would outrun food supply causing poverty and starvation. Among other things this caused the legislation which lowered the population of the poor in England. Malthus actually turned political economic and social thought upside down with this work which has caused him to be considered one of the 100 most influential persons in history Hart The 100: A Ranking of the most Influential Persons in History 1978. Malthus was naturally condemned by Marx and Engels and opposed by the socialists universally but the work had an enormous impact on not only politics economics and social sciences but also on natural sciences. For instance both Darwin and Wallace considered Malthus a main source in their development of the theory of natural selection considering him a great philosopher and his Essay on Population one of the most important books ever. "Malthus’s idea of man’s "Struggle for existence" had decisive influence on Charles Darwin and the theory of evolution. Other scientists related this idea to plants and animals which helped to define a piece of the evolutionary puzzle. This struggle for existence of all creatures is the catalyst by which natural selection produces the "survival of the fittest". Thanks to Malthus Darwin recognised the significance of intraspecies competition between populations of the same species e.g. the lamb and the lamb not just interspecies competition between species e.g. the lion and the lamb. Malthusian population thinking also explained how an incipient species could become a full-blown species in a very short timeframe." The second edition must be considered the most important of all the editions. This is far more a work on the problems of over-population than it is a response to Godwin and Condorcet on their works whic is the main concern of the first edition. "Not so much shocked by his own conclusions in his "Essay on Population" first ed. 1798 as driven by a naturally inquiring mind he travelled for three years through Europe gleaning statistics and then published a second edition 1803." Catlin A History of the Political Philosophers 1939 p. 377. PMM 251 first edition. </em> hardcover

MALTHUS, T[homas] R[obert]
An essay on the principle of population; or a view of its past and present effects on human happiness; with an inquiry into our prospects respecting the future removal or mitigation of the evils which it occasions
London: Printed for J. Johnson.by T. Bensley 1807. In two volumes. xvi 580; vii 484pp 60. With half-titles. Contemporary gilt-ruled half-calf marbled paper boards contrasting green and tan calf lettering-pieces marbled edges. Lightly rubbed corners exposed. Hinges exposed later inked ownership inscription of Arthur Johnson to recto of front blank fly-leaf of Vol. I very occasional light spotting. The fourth edition greatly extended from the anonymous first of 1798 of this cornerstone of early studies of demography and an influential work in the history of political economy. Contrary to the prevailing Whig theory of history English cleric and scholar Thomas Robert Malthus 1766-1834 argued that the agricultural output of modern Britain would not be able to support the rapid population growth witnessed in the eighteenth-century and thus that society would return to earlier subsistence levels following catastrophic outbreaks of disease and famine. The second edition of 1803 was substantially revised and extended to include observations made from European data and most notably the recognition that human agency and especially moral restraint could alleviate the plight of the poorest elements of society. The third edition of 1806 added an appendix in which Malthus replied to his many contemporary critics. This fourth edition incorporates all of the previous revisions and additions. Provenance: Arthur Henry Johnson 1845-1927 historian and chaplain of All Souls College Oxford; author of inter alia The history of the Worshipful Company of the Drapers of London Oxford 1914-22 and The disappearance of the small landowner Oxford 1909. . Fourth edition. 8vo. Printed for J. Johnson...by T. Bensley hardcover

Malthus, Thomas Robert [TR] T R
An Essay on the Principle of Population as It Affects the Future Improvement of Society.
London: J. Johnson 1798. First edition of this cornerstone text of modern economics. Octavo bound in three quarters calf. Laid in is a clipping from an original manuscript signed by Malthus and entirely in his hand which reads in part "If at one time such a given product would make an effectual demand for certain commodities the conditions of the supply of which are supposed to remain the same it would immediately cease to make such effectual." Signed by Malthus in the lower right corner "Malthus." The verso features two further partial lines of text relating to supply and demand. In near fine condition. First editions of Malthus' magnum opus are exceptionally scarce. “Malthus was one of the founders of modern economics. His Essay was originally the product of a discussion on the perfectibility of society with his father who urged him to publish. Thus the first edition published anonymously was essentially a fighting tract but later editions were considerably altered and grew bulkier as Malthus defended his views against a host of critics… The Essay was highly influential in the progress of thought in early 19th-century Europe and his influence on social policy was considerable… Both Darwin and Wallace clearly acknowledged Malthus as a source of the idea of ‘the struggle for existence†PMM 251.

An essay on the principle of population; or a view of its past and present effects on human happiness; with an inquiry into our prospects respecting the future removal or mitigation of theevils which it occasions.
London T. Bensley for J. Johnson 1806. . Third edition 2 vols 8vo xvi 501 63; vii 559 pp. contemporary tree calf gilt red morocco labels some pale foxing a very good set.<br /> The first two-volume edition. Contains important additions and corrections to the earlier editions including replies to his critics.<br /><br />'The central idea of the essay -- and the hub of Malthusian theory -- was a simple one. The population of a community Malthus suggested increases geometrically while food supplies increased only arithmetically. If the natural increase in population occurs the food supply becomes insufficient and the size of the population is checked by 'misery' -- that is the poorest sections of the community suffer disease and famine. The Essay was highly influential in the progress of thought in early nineteenth-century Europe' PMM.<br /><br />'His work was an important influence on both Darwin and Wallace in their formulation of the concept of natural selection. It also had a profound influence on the decrease in size of families down to the present time' Garrison-Morton.<br /> Garrison-Morton 1693; Goldsmiths' 19210; Kress B5067; Cf. PMM 251. London, T.
