Maggiori informazioni sul libro

Set in 1796, the narrative revolves around Mr. Malthus, who believes in the inevitability of human progress, contrasting sharply with his son Thomas's skepticism. Thomas challenges not only his father's views but also the optimistic predictions from a book Mr. Malthus has read. Their discussions lead to a deeper exploration of the concept of progress, prompting Thomas to articulate his objections in writing for a thorough debate. The book delves into themes of optimism versus skepticism regarding humanity's future.
