184228836Edinburgh: William and Robert Chambers 1842. First English language edition. Hardcover book. Good overall. Most important for the 1st English edition of "A Treatise on Man and the Development of His Faculties" Quetelet's foundational work of social statistics first published in French "Sur l'homme et le développement de ses facultés". This edition contains a new preface by the author to defend his work from objections brought against it subsequent to the publication of the Paris edition of 1835. Quetelet's goal was to understand the statistical laws underlying crime rates marriage rates or suicide rates correlating them with other social factors. "With Quetelet's work . . . a new era in statistics began. It presented a new technique of statistics or rather the first technique at all. The material was thoughtfully elaborated arranged according to certain preestablished principles and made comparable . . . Quetelet's average man became a slogan in ninetheenth-century discussions on social science . . . Quetelet's impact on nineteenth century thinking can in a certain sense be compared with Descartes's in the seventeenth century" DSB XI p.237. <br /> <br /> 8vo x 5-126 pp text in two columns 7 lithographed plates at the end.

200491671Thoemmes Continuum. New. 2004. Hardcover. 1843710927 . FREE UPGRADE to Courier/Priority Shipping Upon Request - IN STOCK AND IMMEDIATELY AVAILABLE FOR SHIPMENT - Flawless copy brand new pristine never opened -- 3168 pages. EIGHT 8 VOLUME SET. Description: "John Locke 1632-1704 the father of British empiricism is also famous for his writings on politics education and religion. During his lifetime he had a great influence on the major thinkers in Britain and mainland Europe. In Germany his works on tolerance and on the limits of human knowledge were especially important. They supplied central arguments against the prevailing scholasticism of German school metaphysics. Since most German authors of the 18th century lacked a good command of the English language there was a great need for translations. Through these translations Wolff Endelssohn and the Neologians around Reimarus and Lessing were just as much influenced by Locke as by Immanuel Kant. Indeed the German Enlightenment is not intelligible without taking note of the early translations of Locke reprinted here. This eight-volume collection contains the most significant and widely disseminated 18th-century German translations of Locke's main works: his 'Epistola de Tolerantia' 'Of the Conduct of the Understanding' 'An Essay Concerning Human Understanding' 'Two Treatises of Government' 'Some Thoughts Concerning Education' and 'The Reasonableness of Christianity'. Also included is the first Latin translation of Locke's Essay 'Concerning Human Understanding' the edition very likely read and used by Kant. Most of these books include informative and prefaces or commentaries by the translators. This set introduced in German by Konstantin Pollok should be a useful resource for scholars of the German Enlightenment and those interested in the development and influence of British empiricism." -- with a bonus offer-- .
