118. Halley, Edmund (1656-1742).: Degrees of Mortality of Mankind. As presented in his papers, entitled I -- An estimate of the degrees of the mortality of mankind, drawn from curious tables of the births and funerals at the city of Breslaw; with an attempt to ascertain the price of annuities upon lives ...

Trans. in which Halley's essays appeared. Both first published in the Philosophical Transactions of the Royal Society, Vol. XVII, No. 196 (pp. 596-610) and No. 198 (pp. 654-656). As the editor notes in his introduction, "Although the value of this contribution was not appreciated at the time, its subsequent importance to the field of population statistics can hardly be overestimated. Halley recognized that the 'curious tables' from Breslau contained evidence which would yield (under certain a ssumptions, which the data appeared to justify) an estimate of the age distribution of the population that was essential for the determinatin of mortality rates by age. He saw further that these rates had a variety of 'uses,' among which was the calculat ion of annuity prices. He not only gave a sound analysis of this problem, under the assumptions stated, but he put his results in such a convenient form that this first table of mortality has remained the pattern for all subsequent tables, as to its fund amental form of expression." 4 ounces = 116 grams. 9.3 x 6.2 x 0.1 inches = 23.3 x 15.5 x 0.3cm.

Keynes' only philosophical book is a classic contribution to the philosophy of probability. Keynes' principal thesis -- that there are inferences in which the premises do not entail the conclusion but which have an objective rather than subje ctive probability -- less good reason for believing it" -- along with the famous Principle of Limited Independent Variety articulated in chapter 20 have had great influence on subsequent theorizing about probablity.

Knapp defined money independently of its commodity value as a creation of the state, which allowed him to explain theoretically the existence of "paper money" with no intrinsic value. His ideas, which ran counter to the classical and neoclass ical theories of money, were quite popular in Germany and helped lay the foundation for Keynes's work.
