191217483<p>Paris: Gauthier-Villars 1912 Second edition. Contemporary half calf. Spine richly gilt-decorated red label. . Octavo. A fine copy wkitht he original wrappers bound in. Henry Poincaré 1854-1912 was one of the most versatile mathematicians physicists and philosophers of the pre-modern era. He came extremely close to announcing the special theory of relativity just months before Einstein. In this treatise on probability theory Poincaré introduces the foundation of modern ergodic theory and expands on Gauss's law of large numbers. Whereas Gauss in Theoria Motus proved the normal law of error by assuming that the probability of a certain deviation depends only on the magnitude of the deviation Poincaré relaxes this assumption and shows that a law much more general than the Gaussian distribution may be deduced. See Whittaker The Calculus of Observations p. 218.</p> Gauthier-Villars,
