About this title

Synopsis

Malthus extensively revised his first Essay as a result of his European travels undertaken to collect statistics on population and economic growth to substantiate his arguments. The revised work had become a full-scale treatise on demogaphy which offered new facts, a new arrangement and a new emphasis together with refutations of various attacks on his theory. Further revised editions were published at regular intervals during his lifetime, the last, a sixth edition in 1826. "The [current] revival of interest in the Malthusian doctrine ...makes it one of the longest-lived social theories of all time." International Encylcopedia of the Social Sciences
