Reseña del editor:

THOMAS ROBERT MALTHUS (1766-1834), educated at Cambridge, where he had a brilliant student career, became curate of Albury in Surrey (1798). In that year he published “An Essay on the Principle of Population”, in which he argued that population, growing geometrically, would soon increase beyond the means of subsistence, which grew arithmetically, and that checks in the form of poverty, disease and starvation where necessary. His work was vigorously attacked by Godwin, Cobbett, Hazlitt and others, but it exerted a powerful influence on social thought in the 19th cent. C. Darwin declared that Malthus´s Essay helped to point him towards his own theory of evolution.
