Description

Writing a commentary on the famous essay was easy, admits Elwell (sociology, Rogers State U.), because its ideas are consistent, logical, and succinctly stated, and question to ask is why a commentary is needed at all. He finds that the ideas are so powerful and pervasive that almost everyone has encountered them, usually at several removes, and even many critics and supporters either have not read the essay itself or have read it only after having been heavily biased by secondary sources. He argues that Malthus erred in his assumption that food supplies increase according to an arithmetic rather than a geometric progression, but that may not invalidate his basic premise that humans will eventually outstrip all possible food supply.
