1837réf. 153292Paris: Bachelier 1837. Applying probability theory to criminology First edition of Poisson's important work on the probability of criminal and civil verdicts "in large part a treatise on probability theory after the manner of Laplace with an emphasis on the behaviour of means of large numbers of measurements" Stigler pp. 182-3. "The legitimacy of the application of the calculus to areas relating to the moral order that is to say within the broad area of what is now called the humanistic sciences was bitterly disputed beginning in 1820 in politically conservative circles as well as by Saint-Simonians and by such philosophers as Auguste Comte. Poisson was bold enough to take pen in hand to defend the universality of the probabilistic thesis and to demonstrate the conformability to the order of nature of the regularities that the calculus of probability without recourse to hidden causes reveals when things are subjected to a great number of observations. It is to Poisson that we owe the term 'law of large numbers'. He improved Laplace's work by relating it explicitly to Jacob Bernoulli's fundamental theorem and by showing that the invariance in the prior probabilities of mutually exclusive events is not a necessary condition for calculating the approximate probabilities. It is also from Poisson that we derive the study of a problem that Laplace had passed over the case of great asymmetry between opposite events such that the prior probability of either event is very small" DSB.

''Le dessin de Simon est essentiellement moderne. Avec got il runit les qualits qu'on trouve plus pousses ou systmatiques chez d'autres artistes. Son talent est fait d'humour nonchalant de hardiesse dans l'expression de mesure dans la fantaisie de mesure surtout qui le conduit gaiement jusqu' la limite dangereuse de l'outrance.

1908réf. 122897London: Privately Printed at the Chiswick Press 1908. A proud Jewish father publishes for his children First and only edition. A truly sumptuous piece of private publishing produced as a gift for the author's children and grandchildren handsomely printed at the Chiswick Press and finely bound by an unnamed binder of real quality. Among the varied pieces is "A Dream by One who Dreamt It" a prose fantasy conceived at the time of the Dreyfus case of a Jewish state "a beautiful land of very vast extent" where Jews driven out from the civilized countries of Europe by "hatred and envy of the race" live in paradisal self-government. The volume carries the bookplate of Bernard Alexander Isaac 1871-1938. If he is one of the children for whom the book was printed then "Pater" was Frederick Simeon Isaac c.1829-1915. With his siblings Benjamin and Alexander Frederick was a partner in Isaac & Samuel a City of London firm with worldwide interests. He was also a director of several South American utility and finance companies. In the 1871 Census he was described as a "South American merchant" and in the 1901 Census as a "financial merchant". He left £630000 including a range of legacies to Jewish charities. The book is likely to have been printed in small numbers and is unsurprisingly rare.
