Excerpt from Fertility and Survival: Population Problems From Malthus to Mao Tse-Tung
The less a problem is understood, the more passionate the opinions about it and the more solid the prejudices.
In the gallery of famous misunderstood men, Malthus occupies a notable position, for the confusions about him are numerous: confus ions between the patrician and the dogmatist, between the moralist and the economist, confusions, even, between the various stages of his own development, and finally, between the prophet and all those who have spoken in his name.
