'The volume effectively documents the enduring significance of Malthus's principle of population.' Dennis Hodgson, Population and Development Review 'The volume of essays that comprise New Perspectives on Malthus, edited by one of the world's foremost scholars of Malthus's life and work, collectively portray the vibrant and volatile debates out of which Malthus's thinking emerged and that only intensified in its wake, continuing through the nineteenth century and on into the twenty-first. More than a volume dedicated solely to the work of a particular political economist, this collection speaks to anyone interested in the history of environmentalism, capitalism, and international population debates.' Molly Farrell, Journal of Historical Geography 'With its many voices and many views New Perspectives on Malthus presents a clear, often brilliant light on an extensive range of Malthusian/anti-Malthusian interpretations and implications [ T]his remarkable collection of essays, each tracking distinct yet related lines of inquiry from two hundred years ago to the present, serves as a reminder that the past is never past, that ideas seldom do have boundaries.' The Wordsworth Circle
