Abstract

[Francis Ysidro Edgeworth (1845–1926) was a complex personality with wide-ranging interests in both the humanities and the natural sciences. For several years he studied the classics at the universities of Dublin and Oxford, next he studied commercial law and qualified as a barrister, and finally he studied logic and mathematics on his own, using the acquired knowledge to write important books on ethics, utility, and economics.]
