SAY (Jean-Baptiste): Traité d'économie politique, or simple exposition of the manner in which wealth is formed, distributed and consumed. Cinquième édition, augmentée d'un volume et à laquelle se trouvent joints un épitome des principes fondamentaux de l'économie politique, et un index raisonné des matières.

Small leather chips on 1 cover and 1 hinge. Scattered foxing. 5th edition (E.O 1803) It is a "fundamental error that vitiates the appreciation of Say's place in the history of economics, namely, the current interpretation of his relationship to A. Smith. Say's work continues the Cantillon-Turgot tradition. The most important aspect of his work is his great contribution to analytical economics, and his conception of economic equilibrium, albeit vaguely and imperfectly formulated. Say's work is the most important link in the chain that leads us from Cantillon and Turgot to Walras." (Schumpeter).

Conlon 41: 497; European Americana 741: 93; Muller, Biblio. des Kaffee 91. "Previously 1st published, London, 1736, as Geoffroy's "A treatise of the fossil vegetable, and animal substances that are made use of in physick", which purports to be based upon a ms. of the author's lectures. American plants include balsam of Peru, cacao, ipecacuanha, Jamaica pepper, Virginian snakeroot, etc." (European Americana). "Etienne-François Geoffroy, a native of Paris, was a master apothecary and doctor of medicine in Paris. Geoffroy proposed a classification of chemical substances according to their greater or lesser "disposition to unite" with a reference substance. The idea that some substances could unite more easily than others was not new, but Geoffroy took credit for bringing together all available information in a large general table, later called the affinity table. The controversy between him and Louis LEMERY, one of his colleagues at the Académie, bears witness to the new way of practicing science, with everyone putting forward a conjecture that they tried to corroborate with experiments, and proposing new experiments to refute the opposing conjecture. This new art of scientific debate was to provide a solid foundation for the emerging science of chemistry.
