Description:
[London]: John Murray, 1824. Disbound. Good. 8vo. 24 c.m. x 13.5 c.m. [1], 298-334 pp. Pamphlet. The Quarterly Review was a British periodical that began in 1809. This is a review of Thomas Malthus' Principles of Political Economy, and the writers of this review frequently compare Malthus' work to Adam Smith's The Wealth of Nations. A fascinating look at what Malthus' contemporaries thought of his work, a work which would later be praised by J.M. Keynes, the twentieth-century economist. This article was once bound in a compendium of the Quarterly review, but now lacks boards and wraps. The stitching is present on the side, and the final leaf is starting from the stitching.
