Third edition the first to be published in 2 volumes and the first published after the Great Quarto edition of 1803 of one of the most important and influential books in the history of economic thought. The third edition contained numerous revisions among which was a text entitled A Reply to the Chief Objections which have been urged against the Essay on the Principle of Population which was also published separately so that it might be bound with earlier ones. As the world's population continues to grow at a frighteningly rapid rate Malthus's classic warning against overpopulation gains increasing importance. An Essay on the Principle of Population examines the tendency of human numbers to outstrip their resources and argues that checks in the form of poverty disease and starvation are necessary to keep societies from moving beyond their means of subsistence. Malthus's simple but powerful argument was controversial in his time; today his name has become a byword for active concern about humankind's demographic and ecological prospects. ; 8vo 8" - 9" tall . hardcover
