BOOLE, George (1815-1864)
The mathematical analysis of logic, being an essay towards a calculus of deductive reasoning. Cambridge: Macmillan, Barclay & Macmillan, 1847.
First edition of Boole's innovative work on logic and the first presentation of Boolean algebra. Boole’s contribution to logics made possible the works of subsequent logicians including Turing and Von Neumann. […] Even Babbage depended a great deal on Boole’s ideas […] for his understanding of what mathematical operations really are. […] Since Boole showed that logics can be reduced to very simple algebraic systems – known today as Boolean Algebras – it was possible for Babbage and his successors to design organs for a computer that could perform the necessary logical tasks. Thus our debt to this simple, quiet man, George Boole, is extraordinarily great and probably not adequately repaid’ (Goldstine). Goldstine, The Computer from Pascal to von Neumann, 2008. OOC 223.

Octavo (205 x 129mm). 6-line errata slip tipped-in after title (a few trivial spots). Modern maroon leather, spine gilt.
