Author: Tucker, George
Condition: New
Tucker's best-known work is an important American contribution to the Malthusian debate. His compendium of the census reports from 1790 to 1850 with comments and interpretations draws several theoretical conclusions in opposition to Malthus, primarily Malthusian underestimation of checks to population growth. "Tucker's pioneering work ... includes an early estimate of the national income ... and the prediction of the 'euthanasia' of slavery." The New Palgrave. "Mainly a study in U.S. demography ... more important is the fact that it is also a study in economic analysis." J.A. Schumpeter History of Economic Analysis
