This book offers a broad perspective on the issue of world hunger, analyzing the long-term data on food production from 1885 to the present. Exploring evidence of the validity of Malthusian theory throughout history, the book documents those cases where innovations in food-producing technologies were adopted in response to population pressures and crises of hunger.
MITCHELL H. KELLMAN is Professor of Economics at the City College and Graduate Center of the City University of New York.
