Reseña del libro "A Purgatory of Misery: : How Victorian Liberals Turned a Crisis into a Disaster"
A layman's guide to the worst man made disaster to afflict the former United Kingdom, it's causes and lessons for the future. Whilst the British elites were celebrating the achievements of Empire, a million people died from lack of food and housing elsewhere in the United Kingdom. Is it possible for humanity to achieve the Liberal ideal of the greatest good for the greatest number or are Malthus's predictions about the relationship between population and food production about to come true? Comments from reviewers of the first edition: "Scholarly, well-referenced, and authoritative without being dry or dull" "opened my eyes to the abject misery suffered by the Irish during the potato famine." "A well written and well researched work well worth the look for anyone interested in what I shall refer to as social injustices."
