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. 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.
