Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This book is a comprehensive treatise on annuities and political arithmetic, and a seminal work in demographic studies. The author's groundbreaking methods of calculating probabilities of life and population estimates from mortality and birth data form the foundation of much of today's knowledge on human longevity. By examining data on the bills of mortality of London and the ages at death of married women, the author made detailed observations on mortality rates, population distribution, and average life expectancy. These ideas were essential in the development of modern actuarial science, leading to the establishment of life insurance and annuities and shaping modern understandings of mortality and longevity.
