An Inquiry Into The Nature And Progress Of Rent

An Inquiry Into The Nature And Progress Of Rent: And The Principles By Which It Is Regulated is a book written by Thomas Robert Malthus in 1815. The book is an analysis of the concept of rent, which is defined as the payment made for the use of land. Malthus examines the history of rent, its relationship with agricultural production, and the principles that govern its regulation. He also explores the economic theories that have been proposed to explain the nature of rent, including the labor theory of value and the theory of diminishing returns. Malthus argues that rent is a necessary component of the economy, but that it must be regulated in order to prevent it from becoming a burden on society. The book is considered a classic in the field of economics and has had a significant impact on the development of economic theory.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
