Mathematical Psychics: An Essay On The Application Of Mathematics To The Moral Sciences is a book authored by Francis Ysidro Edgeworth, a renowned economist and statistician. Published in 1881, it is a pioneering work in the field of mathematical psychology, where mathematical techniques are applied to study human behavior and decision-making processes. The book presents a systematic approach to the application of mathematical methods to the study of moral and social sciences, including economics, psychology, and ethics. It explores the principles of probability theory and statistics, which are used to analyze human behavior and decision-making in various contexts. Edgeworth’s work is divided into two main parts. The first part deals with the measurement of subjective experiences, such as pleasure and pain, and how they can be quantified and analyzed using mathematical methods. The second part focuses on the application of these methods to the study of social phenomena, such as the distribution of wealth and income, and the effects of taxation and other economic policies. Overall, Mathematical Psychics is a seminal work that laid the foundation for the development of modern mathematical psychology and its applications in various fields. It remains a valuable resource for researchers and scholars interested in the intersection of mathematics and the social sciences.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.

    Immanuel Kant
    Kant’s Groundwork of the Metaphysics of Morals is one of the most important works in modern moral philosophy. It belongs beside Plato, Aristotle, Machiavelli, and Hobbes.

    HENRY DAVID THOREAU
    Civil Disobedience argues that citizens should not permit their governments to overrule their consciences, and that they have a duty to avoid allowing their acquiescence to enable the government to make them the agents of injustice. Thoreau was motivated in part by his disgust with slavery and the Mexican-American War, but the sentiments he expresses here are just as pertinent ...
