About This Item

1756 Forensic Mathematics German Polack Civil LAW Property Lawsuit RARE Mathesis

Johann Friedrich Polack was an 18th-century German law scholar and mathematician, best-remembered for his work 'Mathesis Forensis'. Also known as 'Forensic Mathematics' (1734), this work is one of the earliest treatises to push for the use of math when making legal decisions. Polack noted specific cases – bankruptcy suits, inheritance cases, surveying and land ownership, property disputes, interest gains, etc.

This 1756 German edition was published in Leipzig and features numerous in-text charts and folding tables.
