''A Refutation; Of An Article In The Edinburgh Review, No. 102, Entitled Sadler�������s Law Of Population, And Disproof Of Human Superfecundity'' is a book written by Michael Thomas Sadler in 1830. The book is a response to an article published in the Edinburgh Review, which criticized Sadler’s Law of Population. Sadler’s Law of Population was a theory that suggested that population growth would eventually lead to a decrease in living standards. The Edinburgh Review article argued against this theory and claimed that human super-fecundity (the ability to have multiple offspring from one pregnancy) was the reason for population growth. In this book, Sadler refutes the arguments presented in the Edinburgh Review article and provides evidence to support his own theory. He argues that human super-fecundity cannot explain the rapid population growth that was occurring at the time, and that his Law of Population is still valid. Sadler also addresses other criticisms of his theory, such as the idea that increased productivity could offset the negative effects of population growth. Overall, ''A Refutation; Of An Article In The Edinburgh Review, No. 102, Entitled Sadler�������s Law Of Population, And Disproof Of Human Superfecundity'' is a defense of Sadler’s Law of Population and a critique of the arguments presented in the Edinburgh Review article. It is a valuable resource for anyone interested in the history of population theory and the debates surrounding it in the early 19th century.Containing Also, Additional Proofs Of The Principle Enunciated In That Treatise, Founded On The Censuses Of Different Countries Recently Published.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
