The second of two talks
The Population Balance by E. A. WRIGLEY ,
Fellow of Peterhouse and University Lecturer in the Department of Geography. Cambridge
London grew phenomenally between 1650 and 1750. Why, and how? We can work out rough statistics of the population changes underlying this growth. And they suggest that it could have played a vital part in the demography of the world's first dramatic take-off into modern industrial growth and industrial society. This may be true psychologically as well as statistically.
