1785réf. 169550Paris: Imprimerie Royale 1785. Calculating the wisdom of crowds First edition of Condorcet's pioneering application of probability theory to collective decision-making "the first large-scale attempt to apply mathematics to knowledge of human phenomena" DSB. Condorcet investigated the probability that the majority decision of an assembly or tribunal was correct and whether rational individual choices produce coherent collective decisions. While recognizing limitations and contradictions it is ultimately a defence of democratic decisions and the wisdom of crowds and a seminal work in social choice theory. "It is mainly to the Essai a ground-breaking investigation into the relationship between voting procedures and collective outcomes that Condorcet owes his modern standing as the founder of social choice. His theory of voting and political decision-making constitutes one of the most sustained elements to be found in the whole corpus of his writings" Williams pp. 207-8. Quarto 247 x 183 mm pp. 2 cxci 1 304. Contemporary mottled calf spine lettered and decorated in gilt marbled endpapers red edges. Slight rubbing ink splash to title page contents browned.
