8vo, pp. xiv, 423, [1 blank], [6, advertisements]; an excellent copy in original red blocked cloth, boards blocked in black, spine blocked in black and gilt, slightly faded.First edition thus, the first American appearance of the sociological portion of Spencer's 'philosophical system', which commenced in 1860, and thus the first appearance in America of his foundational system of sociology, which unified Darwinian evolution and social science, famous for introducing the idea of 'survival of the fittest' to human biology. Spencer acknowledges the instigation of Edward Livingston Youmans that saw the appearance of this edition in agreement with William Henry Appleton; a partnership which saw the works of numerous scientists and sociologists first published in America. The Study of sociology was used by William Graham Sumner of Yale when he taught the first course in sociology in the United States in 1879, over the objections of Yale's President, which led to a split within the faculty. Sumner (and Spencer) won. Seller Inventory # G2169
