This book is an essay written by Thomas Malthus titled "An Essay on the
Principle of Population." Malthus argues that continued population growth
leads to poverty. He wrote this essay in response to the optimism of his
father and others who believed in the future improvement of society. Malthus
explains that population growth expands in times of plenty until there is a
shortage of resources, causing distress. He also discusses the impact of
epidemics, famines, and wars on population growth. Malthus suggests that
government welfare and privately supported benevolence should work together to
alleviate poverty. He believes that the threat of poverty motivates hard work
and virtuous behavior. Malthus also touches on the theory of mind and the
relationship between population growth and the availability of resources.
Despite criticism, Malthus's ideas continue to influence discussions on
population growth and resource limitations.
