The Law Of Human Increase: Or Population Based On Physiology And Psychology (1868)

The Law of Human Increase: Or Population Based on Physiology and Psychology is a book written by Nathan Allen in 1868. The book explores the topic of population growth and its relationship with human physiology and psychology. Allen argues that population growth is directly linked to human reproduction and that the laws of nature dictate that populations will continue to increase unless certain measures are taken to control it. The book delves into various factors that affect population growth, including fertility rates, mortality rates, and immigration. Allen also discusses the impact of social and economic factors on population growth, such as poverty, education, and access to healthcare. Throughout the book, Allen provides a detailed analysis of the physiological and psychological aspects of human reproduction, including the role of hormones, genetics, and environmental factors. He also explores the moral and ethical implications of population control measures, such as contraception and abortion. The Law of Human Increase is a comprehensive and thought-provoking examination of the complex issues surrounding population growth. It provides a valuable historical perspective on the topic and remains relevant today as societies continue to grapple with issues of population control and sustainability.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
