An Enquiry Into The Causes Of The Late Increase Of Robbers, Etc.: With Some Proposals For Remedying This Growing Evil (1751) is a book written by Henry Fielding. The book is an investigation into the reasons behind the rise in robberies in England during the 18th century. Fielding explores the social and economic factors that contributed to the increase in crime, including poverty, unemployment, and the breakdown of traditional social structures. He also proposes solutions to the problem, including the establishment of a professional police force and the creation of programs to help the poor and unemployed. The book is a significant work in the history of criminology and provides insight into the social and economic conditions of 18th century England.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
