Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This book is a treatise on the mathematical calculation of probabilities. The author, an acclaimed mathematician, seeks to establish a solid mathematical basis for the branch of knowledge known as the Doctrine of Chances. In it, he provides a set of fundamental principles and rules for calculating the likelihood of various events occurring, and to characterize the nature of the risk and advantage in games of chance. The author includes several illustrative examples to clarify these principles, which he expands upon to explore many intricate chance-based scenarios of increasing complexity. This book is a valuable resource for anyone seeking to deepen their understanding of probability within the context of games of chance. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format. In rare cases, an imperfection in the original, such as a blemish or missing page, may be replicated in the book. print-on-demand item.

First Edition
Hardcover. Condition: Fair. First edition. London: "Printed by W. Pearson for the Author", MDCCXVIII (1718). Rare first edition of the first textbook on probability. Original boards, endpapers and spine. Tooled boards are whole but detached and rubbed heavily at corners. Spine is missing 2 1/2 panels of 6, lightly treated with leather preservative to mitigate flaking. Endpapers are present, front endpaper is chipped at front edge. Text block is sound, light darkening to edges of pages, top and front edges from use- else good copy, paper and print quality. Artists engraved, creative 'armorial' bookplate of Josiah M.(Montague) Goodall (1828-1893) of Charles Goodall and Son, Card Maker Master Employing 500 People. The book's title came to be synonymous with probability theory, and accordingly the phrase was used in Thomas Bayes' famous posthumous paper "An Essay Towards Solving a Problem in the Doctrine of Chances", wherein a version of Bayes' theorem was first introduced.

The doctrine of chances or a method of calculating the probabilities of events in play -- The third edition, FULLER, CLEARER, and MORE CORRECT THAN THE FORMER
Published by London, Millar, 1756, 1756
Couverture rigide. Condition: Bon. ---- Troisième édition REVUE, AUGMENTEE ET CORRIGEE ---- EX-LIBRIS C.V.L. CHARLIER, auteur d'un ouvrage sur le calcul des probabilités ---- EXEMPLAIRE GRAND DE MARGES ---- London, Millar, 1756, un volume grand in 4 relié en pleine basane (reliure de l'époque), (restaurations maladroites aux coiffes), (2), 11pp., (1pp.), 348pp. ---- "De Moivre's work on the theory of probability surpasses anything done by any other mathematician except Laplace. His principal contributions are his investigations respecting the duration of play, his theory of recurring series and his extension of the value of Bernouillis theorem by the aid of Sterling's theorem". (Cajori) ---- "The first edition of this work contains 175 pages, the second edition 258 pages and the third 348 pages. The following list will indicate the parts which are new in the third edition : the Remark pages 30/33 and pages 48 & 49, the greater part of the second Corollary pages 64/66, the Examples page 88 ; the Scholium page 95, the Remark page 149 and pages 151/159, the fourth Corollary page 162, the second Corollary pages 176/179, the note at the foot of page 187, the Remark pages 251/254. The part on life annuities is very much changed. The Introduction is very much fuller than the corresponding part of the first edition. In his third edition De Moivre draws attention to the convenience of approximating to a fraction with a large numerator and denominator by continued fractions, which he calls "the Method proposed by Dr Wallis, Huygens and others". He gives the rule for the formation of the successive convergents. This third edition contains 74 problems exclusive of those relating to life annuities (in the first edition there were 53 problems). The pages 220/229 contains one of De Moivre's most valuable contributions to mathematics, namely that of Recurring series. Pages 261/328 are devoted to Annuities on lives ; an Appendix finishes the book, occupying pages 329/348 : this also relates principally to annuities, but it contains a few notes on the subject of probability.". (Todhunter). A very full account of the above third edition will be found in Todhunter's History of the theory of probability"**3725/ARM3.
