It is frequently stated that the doctrines of Malthus may be applied to certain areas of the world to-day, and there has been anxiety lest the rate of increase of the population of the world will lead to an exhaustion of food supplies. The author examines the Malthusian doctrine in its contemporary setting, and gives his reasons for believing that the imminence of this danger is much exaggerated
