An Inquiry Into The Poor Laws And Surplus Labor, And Their Mutual Reaction: With A Postscript is a book written by William Day in 1833. The book examines the relationship between the poor laws and surplus labor in England during the early 19th century. Day argues that the poor laws, which provided relief to the poor, actually contributed to the problem of surplus labor by creating a disincentive to work. He also argues that the surplus labor problem was exacerbated by the Industrial Revolution, which created a surplus of workers in certain industries. The book includes a postscript in which Day responds to criticisms of his arguments. Overall, An Inquiry Into The Poor Laws And Surplus Labor, And Their Mutual Reaction: With A Postscript provides an insightful analysis of the economic and social conditions of England during the early 19th century.Containing Observations On The Commutation Of Tithes, And Remarks On Lord Milton�������s Address On The Corn Laws.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
