rif. 37691J. Murray. 1827. First Edition 4to xxxvi 227 1pp. 22 lithograph plates Malthus essay running from page 171-180; orig. boards covers detached lacks spine uncut unopened internally a nice clean copy. Malthus's first essay to the Royal Society of Literature in which he explains his theory of the source or cause of exchangeable value. As Patricia James in her biography of Malthus explains 'Anyone wishing to understand Malthus's doctrine that the of a commodity is composed of labour and profit these short essays can be recommended for their comparative simplicity. As is often the case enlightenment comes from a footnote - in this instance at the beginning of the first paper with Malthus's italics:- "The natural and necessary conditions of the supply of commodities are precisely the same as the natural and necessary costs of production when reduced to the simplest elements; but I have preferred the former expression because the term cost if not well guarded is too apt to convey the idea of Money expenditure."' The second paper On the Meaning which is most usually and most correctly attached to the term 'Value of a Commodity' was read two years later on the 7th November 1827. J. Murray. 1827 hardcover
1809rif. 40999Washington 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 Provenance: Possibly John Barclay 1749-1824 former Mayor of Philadelphia from 1791 to 1793 First American edition of a fundamental text of Modern Economics. 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.

rif. elala6131Washington 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.
