Excerpt from Illustrations and Proofs of the Principle of Population: Including an Examination of the Proposed Remedies of Mr. Malthus, and a Reply to the Objections of Mr. Godwin and OthersMr. Godwin has embodied in his book the objections of the writers alluded to. He has, also, denied the power of the human race to increase its numbers, has insisted that there is more reason to fear a decrease, than to expect an increase of mankind, has, with his friend and associate, Mr. David Booth, conjectured that the human race is wearing out, and has peremptorily denied that the population in this or any other country presses against the means of subsistence. Mr. Malthus has shown, that in almost all the countries of the earth, the population is constantly pressing against the means of subsistence.About the PublisherForgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
