Excerpt from Parallel Chapters From the First and Second Editions of an Essay on the Principle of Population: 1798: 1803
Thomas Robert Malthus, the son of Daniel Malthus, a country gentleman living in Surrey, was born on Feb.14, 1766. Entering Jesus College, Cambridge, in 1785, he was 9th Wrangler in the Mathematical Tripos in 1788; took Holy Orders; and in 1797 was elected to a Fellowship at his college. In 1805 he was appointed Professor of History and Political Economy at the East India College at Haileybury, a position which he retained until his death on Dec. 29, 1834. By his marriage in 1804 he had two daughters and a son.
His Essay on the Principle of Population arose out of discussions with his father, - who had been the executor of Rousseau, - over the opinions of William Godwin. In its first form, as published in 1798, it was a small loosely printed 8vo of 396 pp.: about one-third of it is here reprinted.
In its second form, as published in 1803, it was a 4to of 604 pp., containing about four times as much matter: about one-twentieth of it is here reprinted. The third edition appeared in 1806, the fourth in 1807, the fifth in 1817, the sixth in 1826. It was translated into German by Hegewisch (1807), and into French by Prévost (1809, 2nd ed. 1852).

Paperback. Condición: New. Print on Demand. This book introduces Thomas Robert Malthus and his influential work on population theory. The author was an English philosopher and economist who lived in the late 18th century. His work 'An Essay on the Principle of Population' has significantly impacted the understanding of population growth and its relationship to economics and societal development. Malthus argued that population growth tends to outpace the available resources for subsistence, leading to a constant struggle for survival and widespread misery. He believed that this disparity between population growth and resource availability is a fundamental obstacle to achieving lasting human progress. The book explores the complex dynamics of population, resource availability, and societal well-being, offering insights that continue to inform discussions on environmental sustainability, economic development, and social inequality. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format. In rare cases, an imperfection in the original, such as a blemish or missing page, may be replicated in the book. print-on-demand item. Nº de ref. del artículo: 9781331385660_0
