Edgeworth is best known for his book, Mathematical Psychics (1881). As to Edgeworth's formulae, Heilbroner was of the view: "Considerations so abstract, it would of course be ridiculous to fling upon the floodtide of practical politics." (p. 166.)

    Extractions: (Hydrogapher) Childhood: Born in 1774, near Navan in Co.Meath , Francis Beaufort was the son of a rector. His father was well respected in the fields of geography and topography , publishing in 1972 one of the earliest detailed maps of Ireland. Beaufort had a passion for the sea, and at the age of 14 was sent to his father's friend Dr.Henry Ussher, Professor of Astronomy at Trinity College , for five months study at the newly founded Dunsink Observatory. In 1789 he joined the East India Company and enlisted in the Royal Navy the following year, remaining in active service until 1812. With the Navy he served in the Napoleonic wars and was only 26 years old when he received nineteen wounds, in a battle off Malaga. A bullet was to remain in his lungs causing him chest pains intermittingly throughout his life. While recovering he helped his brother-in-law Richard Lovell Edgeworth (father of Maria Edgeworth to establish a telegraph line from Dublin to Galway. In 1812, he was wounded again, in a battle against pirates, off the coast of

    http://www.cswep.org/edgeworth.html
    
    Extractions: Maria Edgeworth and Classical Political Economy William Kern, Western Michigan University Amongst economists the name Edgeworth is a familiar one owing to the significant contributions of the British neoclassical economist Francis Ysidro Edgeworth. But what is less well known is that F. Y. Edgeworth was not the first in the Edgeworth family to have a considerable interest in economics. His aunt, the Victorian author, Maria Edgeworth (1767-1849), could claim the title of the first political economist in the Edgeworth family. Maria was born in England, though she lived most of her life in Ireland. The family had owned property in Ireland for nearly two centuries when on Maria's fifteenth birthday her father, Richard Edgeworth, moved his family to the family mansion at Edgeworthstown. Edgeworthstown was her home until her death in 1847. The family estate was a large one involving a myriad of activities including the assignment of leases, the collection of rents, and the improvement of the land. In addition, as the most significant property owner in the hamlet, her faather also had a degree of political influence and obligations. As one of the eldest of the twenty-two children which Richard Edgeworth fathered, considerable responsibility fell to Maria both in conducting the affairs of the estate and in educating her siblings. She was, in the words of one of her biographers, "his right hand." As a result, she acquired a familiarity with economic and political matters rare for a woman of her age.

75. RICHARD LOVELL EDGEWORTH
    He was of gentle bloodhis father being the son of Colonel francis edgeworth, andhis mother, Jane Lovell, being the daughter of Samuel Lovell, a Welsh judge.  
    http://16.1911encyclopedia.org/E/ED/EDGEWORTH_RICHARD_LOVELL.htm
    
    Extractions: EDGEWORTH, RICHARD LOVELL In 1798 Edgeworth married Miss Beaufort, and was elected M.P. for the borough of St Johns Town, Longford. The same year, too, saw a hostile landing of the French and a formidable rebellion; and for a short time the Edgeworths took refuge in Longford. The winter of 1802 they spent in Paris. In 1804 the government accepted his telegraphic apparatus, but the installation was left incomplete when the fear of invasion was past. In 1802 appeared the Essay on Irish Bulls by Mr and Miss Edgeworth; and in 1806 Edgeworth was elected a member of the board of commissioners to inquire into Irish education. From 1807 till 18o9 much of his time was spent on mechanical experiments and in writing the story of his life. In 1808 appeared Professional Education, and in 1813 his Essay on the Construction of Roads and Carriages. He died on the I3th of June 1817, and was buried in the family vault in Edgeworthstown churchyard. Many of Edgeworths works were suggested by his zeal for the education of his own children. Such were Poetry Explained for Young People (1802), Readings in Poetry (1816), A Rational Primer (unpublished), and the parts of Early Lessons contributed by him. His speeches in the Irish parliament have also been published; and numerous essays, mostly on scientific subjects, For an appreciation of the two Edgeworths from the teachers point of view, see Prof. L. C. Miall in the Journal of Education (August 1, 1894). have appeared in the Philosophical Transactions, the Transactions of the Royal Irish Academy, the Monthly Magazine and Nicholsons Journal. The story of his early life, told by himself, is fully as entertaining~ as the continuation by Maria, as it contains less dissertation and more incidetit. One of his daughters by his first marriage, Anna Maria, married Dr Beddoes and became the mother of T. L. Beddoes, the poet.

    Extractions: The Birmingham Lunar Society Erasmus Darwin (1731 to 1802, click here for picture), the grandfather of Charles Darwin and Francis Galton (the inventor of eugenics), was a poet, inventor and scientist. He had ideas about evolution which almost certainly influenced his grandsons. For example this piece on the beaks of birds, which sounds a lot like Chuck's work on the Galapagos finches: "Some birds have acquired harder beaks to crack nuts, as the parrot. Others have acquired beaks adapted to break the harder seeds, as sparrows. Others for the softer seeds of flowers, or the buds of trees as the finches. Other birds have acquired long beaks to penetrate the moister soils in search of roots, as woodcocks; and others broad ones to filtrate the water of lakes, and to retain aquatic insects. All of which seem to have been gradually produced during many generations by the perpetual endeavour of the creatures to supply the want of food"

    Extractions: The Rolodex of Famous Economists What makes an economist famous? There are two basic criteria, and which are at times uncorrelated with each other: recognition by one's colleagues and recognition by the public at large. Among economists, being famous tends to translate in terms of the number of published works, along with the number of times such work is cited by other economists. Published work and citations are what drives, for example, the Nobel Memorial Prize in Economics selection process. As Paul Samuelson once said, the only coin of worth among economists is the recognition by one's colleagues. Critics of economics have pointed to the insular nature of recognition criteria practiced by economists and have contended that all too often they write with an increasingly abstruse theoretical and mathematical jargon that ignores too many real world issues. As one economist once said when the empirical data did not fit well in a standard econometric model, "So much the worse for reality". Yet economists have exerted a powerful influence on the course of events over times and they have done so by translating what seems at times as overly abstract notions into concrete tools of understanding economic events, predicting future events, and guiding public policy. As a sampler, consider the following economists. Adam Smith (1723-1790) is famous for his
