Texts are clean, tight and unmarked. Vol.I has front hinge cracked but holding. Red cloth boards are rubbed at extremities. Augustus D…e Morgan 1806-1871) was a British mathematician and logician. He formulated De Morgan's laws and introduced the term mathematical induction, making its idea rigorous. A Philosophical Society had been inaugurated at Cambridge; and to its Transactions De Morgan contributed four memoirs on the foundations of algebra, and an equal number on formal logic. The best presentation of his view of algebra is found in a volume, entitled Trigonometry and Double Algebra, published in 1849; and his earlier view of formal logic is found in a volume published in 1847. His most distinctive work is styled A Budget of Paradoxes; it originally appeared as letters in the columns of the Athenæum journal; it was revised and extended by De Morgan in the last years of his life, and was published posthumously by his widow. Second Edition. Hard Cover. Good/No Jacket. 8vo - over 7¾" - 9¾" tall. Ex-Library.

Advances in Psychological Assessment in South Africa provides a detailed, practical and critical appraisal of the evolution of psychological testing since the publication of Psychological Assessment in South Africa: Research and Applications (2013). Editors Laher and Cockcroft once again bring together… practitioners and researchers to explore new tools and methods used to evaluate mental processes and behaviours in South Africa's unique and diverse contexts.The book covers a wide range of psychological domains, including cognitive abilities, personality traits, vocational interests and neuropsychological functions. It examines established testing methods while introducing innovative approaches, technology-driven tools and artificial intelligence-based assessments. These advancements allow for more efficient, accurate, and accessible testing, which is critical given the varied educational, cultural and linguistic backgrounds of South Africans.The country's diversity presents both opportunities and challenges for psychological assessment. Tests must be relevant to local languages, cultures, and social realities to ensure fairness and accuracy. The book highlights efforts to develop and refine tests that reflect these needs, addressing practical issues like accessibility and ethical concerns in the aftermath of apartheid.Written for practitioners, researchers, educators, and students, the book serves as both a reflection on progress and a guide for the future. It showcases how far South Africa has come in creating reliable, culturally sensitive assessments and points to emerging trends, like the integration of Artificial Intelligence to personalise and streamline testing processes. This makes it a valuable resource for those within and beyond South Africa who are interested in understanding how psychological tools can be applied in diverse settings.

Contact seller3-star sellerFIRST EDITION. TP + [iii]-vi = Preface + [vii]-xvi = Table of Contents + [1]-336 + [1]-8 = Publisher's ads. Octavo. First Edition. "De Morgan's work, which commenced in the 1840's, can be seen as the bridge between [the] older [Aristotelian] approach [to logic] and Boole's analytical formulation. Boole acknowledged his debt to D…e Morgan and Hamilton in the preface to his first logical work, 'The Mathematical Analysis of Logic' (1847)." (DSB under De Morgan). De Morgan's work, Formal Logic, published in 1847, is principally remarkable for his development of the numerically definite syllogism. The followers of Aristotle say that from two particular propositions such as Some M's are A's, and Some M's are B's nothing follows of necessity about the relation of the A's and B's. But they go further and say in order that any relation about the A's and B's may follow of necessity, the middle term must be taken universally in one of the premises. De Morgan pointed out that from Most M's are A's and Most M's are B's it follows of necessity that some A's are B's and he formulated the numerically formulated definite syllogism which puts this principle in an exact quantitative form. Suppose, for example, that the number of souls on board a steamer was 1000, that 500 were in the saloon, and 700 were lost. It follows of necessity, that at least 700 + 500 - 1000, that is, 200, saloon passengers were lost. This single principle suffices to prove the validity of all the Aristotelian moods. It is therefore a fundamental principle in necessary reasoning. Here then De Morgan had made a great advance by introducing quantification of the terms. Interestingly, the book is printed throughout using the "long s" (the eighth word in the book's title is, for instance, printed as Neceffary) - a practice that had been generally abandoned by British printers more than 50 years earlier. Publisher's later cloth binding (the six pages of ads present at the end of the book are dated November, 1853) with a printed spine label with faded gilt lettering. The terior is clean, tight and bright. ADDITIONAL PHOTOS AVAILABLE UPON REQUEST.
