Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from Population; A Study in Malthusianism
I first began to work on the question of population at the suggestion of Professor Giddings. I soon found that there was a large amount of statistical material bear ing upon this subject Which had, for the most part, been neglected in the discussions of the growth of population. The effort to make use of some of this material has resulted in this essay. At all stages of my work I have been able to profit by the suggestions and criticisms of a number of the men teaching sociology and economics at Columbia.
I am under special obligations, however, to Professors Cooley and Chaddock Who have read the proofs in addition to the other aid they have given me.
