MOIVRE Abraham de.
Annuities upon Lives: or the Valuation of Annuities upon any Number of Lives; as also of Reversions. To which is added an Appendix concerning the Expectations of Life and Probabilities of Survivorship.
London: Printed by W. P. and sold by Francis Fayram Benj. Motte W. Pearson 1725. Five-fold annuities Octavo 200 x 123 mm. Bound with four other actuarial titles see below in 19th-century half calf and moiré cloth red morocco spine label red edges. Complete with paste-on errata slip at the end. Binder's ticket of Hatton of Manchester to front pastedown engraved bookplate of the North Library from the collection of the Earls of Macclesfield at Shirburn Castle. Spine lightly worn at head; occasional pencil marginalia and the odd mark; a very good copy. First edition the dedication copy with 4-page printed dedication to Thomas Parker first earl of Macclesfield. Along with Halley de Moivre may be considered the founder of actuarial science and a master of probability theory. He was perhaps the first to develop probability theory extensively and the first to use probability theory to write a comprehensive work on life contingencies. In Annuities upon lives de Moivre formulated that among a body of persons over a certain age the successive annual decreases by death are nearly equal. He applied the theory of probability to the systematic investigation of problems concerning annuities upon lives. "De Moivre's contribution to annuities lies not in his evaluation of the demographic facts then known but on his derivation of formulas for annuities based on a postulated law of mortality and constant rates on money. Here one finds the treatment of joint annuities on several lives the inheritance of annuities problems about the fair division of the costs of a tontine and other contracts in which both age and interest on capital are relevant. This mathematics became a standard part of all subsequent commercial applications in England." Ian Hacking in the Dictionary of scientific biography. Bound following de Moivre's work are the following four actuarial titles: 1. LAURENCE Edward. A Dissertation on Estates upon Lives and Years whether in Lay or Church-Hands. With an exact calculation of their real worth by proper tables and the reasons for their different valuations. London: James and John Knaption 1730. Title and a few other pages with marginal soiling occasional pencil marginalia.First edition. Hanson 4053; Kress 3874. 2. RICHARDS John. Annuities on Lives and for Limited Terms of Years considered: Being Observations on what hath been lately advanced by divers authors tending to depreciate the value of estates on those tenures. To which is added a supplement to the Gentleman's steward and tenants of manors instructed. London: J. Osborn 1739. First edition in which Richards replies to a number of his critics including Weyman Lee author of the next pamphlet in this volume. Goldsmiths' 7643; Hanson 5251. 3. LEE Weyman. A Valuation of Annuities and Leases certain for a single life. With Tables showing at one view the value ofthem in years and the eighth part of a year for every year of life from the age of 1 to 70 and from thence to the end of life for every period of five years. At the several rates of 3 4 5 and 6 per cent. interest. London: J. Shuckburgh 1751. Closed tear to title without loss.

De Mensura sortis seu de Probabilitate Eventuum in Ludis a Casu Fortuito Pendentibus.
London: Printed for H. Clements W. Innys and D. Brown 1712. Quarto 203 x 158 pages 213-264. Disbound red edges. Paper lightly browned occasional light spotting; a very good copy. First edition of de Moivre's first paper on probability a 52-page memoir in Latin contributed to the Philosophical Transactions of the Royal Society. "Nearly all of De Mensura Sortis was later incorporated into de Moivre's book The Doctrine of Chances 1718 1738 1756 which was the most important textbook on probability theory until the publication of Laplace's Théorie Analytqiue des Probabilités 1812. In the preface de Moivre states that he began his work on probability theory at the exhortation of Francis Robartes who asked him to solve the division problem for two gamesters playing bowls and also to find the probability of getting certain given faces as the outcome of a given number of throws with a die. He also states that had previously read the books by Huygens and Montmort 'but these distinguished gentlemen do not seem to have employed that simplicity and generality which the nature of the matter demands.' Furthermore he writes that 'while they suppose that the skill of the gamesters is always equal they confine this doctrine of games within limits too narrow.' Finally his remarks about Montmort may be read as if Montmort had used only the method of Huygens on some new examples. These rash remarks naturally provoked a dispute with Montmort." A. Hald A. de Moivre: 'De Mensura Sortis' or 'On the Measurement of Chance' in International Statistical Review 1984 vol. 52 no. 3 pages 229-262. See Stigler Stephen M The History of Statistics: The Measurement of Uncertainty before 1900 Harvard University Press 1986 p. 71; Westergaard Harald Contributions to the History of Statistics Augustus M.

His introduction contains an overview of main concepts such as probability conditional probability expectation dependent and independent events the multiplication rule and the binomial distribution. The translator Roberto Gaeto of the University of Pavia translates the parts of de Moivre's work dealing with the application of the doctrine of chance to annuities tontines life expectancies and mortallity tables.

London: Printed for the author 1738 The second edition substantially expanded from the 1718 first edition with more than eighty pages of added text and revision. Contemporary calf rebacked gilt brown morocco label. . Quarto. Woodcut ornament on title-page decorative headbands tail-pieces and initial letters. Covers a bit rubbed. A very good copy. De Moivre's 1667-1754 most important book on probability. The work is essentially a gambler's manual "giving a systematic presentation of the arithmetic principles upon which are based the solution of problems concerning the advantage of players and the size of wager which may be lain in a wide variety of games of chance" Walker p. 12. The second edition includes de Moivre's work on the normal approximation of the binomial probability distribution his most memorable discovery. Indeed this work would hardly be known today if it had not gone into a second edition. A third edition appeared as well but it is virtually a reprint of the second. Printed for the author, unknown
