About This Item

Paris: Charles Houel, 1798. First Edition. Hard Cover. Very Good/No Jacket. 0x0x0. First edition. Rebound: pebbled cloth spine with gilt titles over marbled-paper-covered boards. 1798 Hard Cover. 484 pp. 8vo. Nine folding plates follow text. French text. A posthumously published work left incomplete upon Condillac's death, which constituted the final volume of his 'Oeuvres.' This and the work immediately preceding it (La logique) exercised considerable influence on the philosophers and scientists of the next generation, introducing algebra as a form of philosophical and scientific language, and shaping the way scientific explanation evolved within numerous disciplines.
