Publisher's Synopsis
""An Examination of Opinions Maintained V1: In the Essay on the Principles of Population, by Malthus (1827)"" is a book written by J.C. Ross. The book is a critical analysis of the ideas presented by Thomas Malthus in his famous work, ""An Essay on the Principle of Population."" Malthus argued that population growth would eventually outstrip the resources available to sustain it, leading to famine, disease, and other forms of suffering. Ross challenges this view, arguing that Malthus' predictions were overly pessimistic and that technological progress and other social changes have mitigated the worst effects of population growth. The book is divided into several chapters, each of which examines a different aspect of Malthus' argument. Ross draws on a wide range of sources, including contemporary economic theory, demographic data, and historical examples, to support his arguments. Overall, ""An Examination of Opinions Maintained V1"" is a thought-provoking analysis of one of the most influential works in the history of economics and social thought.And In The Elements Of Political Economy, By Ricardo.
