Summary: "The connection between economic development and population change is not simple, nor necessarily constant over the years. The classical economists bravely undertook to define the connection; when their generalizations had been exposed by events as over-simplifications, economists began to drop the discussion altogether, or merely to re-state the older doctrines. Nevertheless, a connection probably exists, and this short study attempts to outline how the student of economics, or the general reader, might now approach the problem." -- From the preface.
