One of the most influential works on political economy it had a profound effect on social policy during the nineteenth century especially on the development of harsher poor laws in Great Britain. It was the guiding spirit behind the Poor Law Amendment Act of 1834. The central point of the Essay is that population increases geometrically while food supplies increase arithmetically which will eventually lead to starvation and disease in the poorest sections of the community. In order to prevent this from happening he posits people especially the poor should have children later in life and limit the size of their families. unknown books

126979 May 1827. 'L. I. Fields' i.e. Lincolns Inn Fields London. 2pp. 12mo. 40 lines. Bifolium. Good on aged paper. The reverse of the second leaf carries half of a red wax seal as well as the address to 'James Loch Esqr Bloomsbury Square'. The letter begins: 'My dear Loch Some friends of mine from the Country are desirous of seeing Lord Stafford's & Lord Grosvenor's pictures some time next week; & they understand that the obtaining of Tickets is not a matter of course but that some little interest is necessary.' He asks for assistance 'with regard to Cleveland House . for Mrs Johnston & party about 5 or 6 persons'. He is going 'to the Cambridge Election' on the following day and thinks that it will be 'very keenly contested'. On his return he hopes 'to attend the Council of the London University' when he hopes 'that Horner's business will be finally & satisfactorily settled'. He has heard 'nothing more about Silk Gowns' but 'Willy Brougham . persists in retaining his appointment and will not be scared into resignation like Plunkett by the Chancery Lawyers.' In the last paragraph he deprecates the news that 'Lord Exeter is to have one of the blue Ribbands though he is no friend of Canning's & indeed closely connected with the high Tory opposition'. This is in his view 'one among many instances of C's weakness & entire dependence upon the higher power.' There is no mention of Loch in Lady Seymour's 'The "Pope" of Holland House Selections from the Correspondence of John Whishaw and his Friends 1813-1840' 1906 and the year 1827 is skirted over. 9 May [1827].

First Edition, 4to, xxxvi, 227, [1]pp., 22 lithograph plates, [Malthus essay running from page 171-180]; orig. boards, covers detached, lacks spine, uncut, unopened, internally a nice clean copy. Malthus's first essay to the Royal Society of Literature in which he explains his theory of the source or cause of exchangeable value. As Patricia James in her biography of Malthus explains 'Anyone wishing to understand Malthus's doctrine that the of a commodity is composed of labour and profit, these short essays can be recommended for their comparative simplicity. As is often the case, enlightenment comes from a footnote - in this instance, at the beginning of the first paper (with Malthus's italics):- "The natural and necessary conditions of the supply of commodities are precisely the same as the natural and necessary costs of production, when reduced to the simplest elements; but I have preferred the former expression, because the term cost, if not well guarded, is too apt to convey the idea of Money expenditure."' The second paper On the Meaning which is most usually and most correctly attached to the term 'Value of a Commodity' was read two years later on the 7th November 1827.
