Description

This famous essay on the problem of human numbers and natural resources, first published in 1798, is still the basic document in any con- sideration of the population issue."I think I may fairly make two postulata. "First, That food is necessary to the existence of man."Secondly, That the passion between the sexes is necessary, and will remain nearly in its present state."Assuming, then, my postulata as granted, I say, that the power of population is indefinitely greater than the power in the earth to produce subsistence for man."-THOMAS MALTHUS
