First edition, 8vo, vi, 601, (1) pp. Contemporary black half calf, a little rubbed, covers very slightly damp stained and bowed, gilt spine and red label. "The Principles had only a limited impact at the time. more recently it has received greater recognition, largely as a result of the comments by J. M. Keynes in the 1930s. Keynes argued that Malthus's theory of effective demand provided a scientific explanation of unemployment, and that the hundred-year domination of Ricardo over Malthus had been a disaster for the progress of economics. Keynes believed that if economics had followed Malthus instead of being constrained by Ricardo in an artificial groove, the world would be a much wiser and richer place." (ODNB). Goldsmiths 22767.

First Edition
vi, 601, [1] p. First edition. It has a good quality mid-twentieth century binding with a polished morocco spine, marbled boards and vellum corners. The spine with gold lines and a contrasting label. Minor rubs to the spine ends, otherwise in very good condition. There is an undated pencil note on the title page '£45 Repair'. The text with a few signs of use and some pale paper toning. IMPORTANT COOPERATIVE MOVEMENT PROVENANCE: The title page is inscribed at the head 'Society for promoting Working Men's Assocns / 34 Castle Place --? Oxford Street, with a shelfmark R31'. The Society was founded in 1849 by the Christian Socialists in an attempt to found self governing workshops. Lower down the title page is the oval stamp of Ormond Street Working Mens College which still exists in Camden. Founded in 1854 by Frederick Denison Maurice, Wiki describes it as 'The Working Men's College, is among the earliest adult education institutions established in the United Kingdom, and Europe's oldest extant centre for adult education. Founded by Christian socialists, at its inception it was at the forefront of liberal education philosophy.' At different times its teachers included Thomas Hughes whose latin lectures were apparently not so popular as his boxing club, F.J. Furnival, and E.M. Forster.
