First edition, scarce especially in good condition, of a key work in the history of probability and statistics.

Whitworth was both an able priest and mathematician, serving in Liverpool and London, and at his death was the vicar of All Saints, Margaret Street, in Marylebone. Seller Inventory # RAREB1867DRSZ
