Descrizione dell’articolo da parte del venditore

London: Printed for J. Johnson, in St. Paul's Church-Yard, By T. Bensley, Bolt Court, Fleet Street, 1806. Third Edition – collated and complete. Two volumes, in recent dark calf with gilt titles to red leather labels, gilt bands, marbled paper covered boards, new end papers, text blocks tight, tanned and foxed throughout, with some creasing, damp staining and wrinkling to the pages. Thomas Robert Malthus FRS (1766–1834) was an English economist, cleric, and scholar influential in the fields of political economy and demography. In his 1798 book An Essay on the Principle of Population, Malthus observed that an increase in a nation's food production improved the well-being of the population, but the improvement was temporary because it led to population growth, which in turn restored the original per capita production level. In other words, humans had a propensity to use abundance for population growth rather than for maintaining a high standard of living, a view and stance that has become known as the "Malthusian trap" or the "Malthusian spectre". Populations had a tendency to grow until the lower class suffered hardship, want and greater susceptibility to war, famine, and disease, a pessimistic view that is sometimes referred to as a Malthusian catastrophe.
