In-8, demi-veau de l'époque, dos lisse orné de compartiments fleuronnés (défauts aux coiffes, mors fendillés), viii, 499 p., (3) p. de "notes omises à l'impression", (1) p. d'errata. Edition originale de cet ouvrage que Sénac de Meilhan rédigea pour réfuter Necker et tenter d'obtenir le poste de ministre des Finances. C'est un véritable programme économique, largement influencé par les doctrines physiocratiques, que l'auteur expose au long de ces 47 chapitres qui débordent très largement l'intitulé de l'ouvrage : population, monnaie, 'intérêt de l'argent', 'commerce des blés', 'colonies sur le nouveau continent'… "Sénac avait conçu une sorte de dictionnaire économique (…). S'il se croyait appelé à remplir les fonctions de ministre, il était logique qu'il exposât les principaux articles de son programme" (cf. A. Vielwahr, 'Sénac de Meilhan', p. 69 sq.). L'ouvrage fut reçu favorablement par ses contemporains et contribua à la disgrâce de Necker dans l'opinion. (Goldsmiths, 13327. INED, 4141. Kress, B.1336). Bon exemplaire, très frais.

182 pages including index. Based upon the work of the Medical Research Council Unit for Research on Occupational Aspects of Ageing which was attached to the Department of Psychology at the University of Liverpool between 1959 and 1963. The study of ageing and of comparative function at given ages is of great practical concern and the analyses given here are the product of physical and psychological tests on 540 normal adult subjects from the population of Liverpool and its environs. One of the most useful contributions made by the present study is the compilation of a table of norms of the level of performance which can be expected from people of different ages.
