An Essay On The Principle Of Population, As It Affects The Future Improvement Of Society. With Remarks On The Speculations Of Mr. Godwin, M. Condorcet

More about the book

First published in 1798, this groundbreaking work by T.R. Malthus lays out a controversial theory on population growth and its implications for society. Malthus argues that population growth will inevitably outpace the resources needed to sustain it, leading to widespread poverty, famine, and disease. Although his ideas were controversial at the time, they continue to influence debates on population, ecology, and social policy to this day.
