One of the most influential works on political economy it had a profound effect on social policy during the nineteenth century especially on the development of harsher poor laws in Great Britain. It was the guiding spirit behind the Poor Law Amendment Act of 1834. The central point of the Essay is that population increases geometrically while food supplies increase arithmetically which will eventually lead to starvation and disease in the poorest sections of the community. In order to prevent this from happening he posits people especially the poor should have children later in life and limit the size of their families. unknown books

Modern quarter calf and marbled paper covered boards vellum tips flat spines gilt with green morocco lettering pieces. Very good. Fifth edition. xvi 496; iv 507 1; iv 500pp. 3 vols. 8vo. "The central idea of the essay - and the hub of Malthusian theory - was a simple one. The population of a community . increases geometrically while food supplies increase only arithmetically. If the natural increase in population occurs the food supply becomes insufficient and the size of the population is checked by 'misery' . The Essay was highly influential in the progress of thought in early 19th-century Europe . his influence on social policy whether for good or evil was considerable" PMM 251. Darwin among others credited Malthus as a source for his theory of natural selection. "The achievement of Malthus was the exposition of the theory of population; and his name has been associated so closely with this theory that like Darwin's it has added a new adjective to the language of civilized peoples" Palgrave II 670-71. First published anonymously in 1798 subsequent editions were exanded and this fifth edition published a decade after the fourth with "important additions" viz. adding substantial updates regarding public policy trade and data. The changes to this edition were so substantial that the changes were sold as a separate supplementary book titled Additions to the Fourth and Former Editions. The penultimate edition issued with Malthus's revisions during his lifetime and is often considered textually the best edition. Palgrave II 667-675; Kress B-6974.
