Synopsis
Explore how a unified system of social statistics can organize our knowledge of society. This book presents a comprehensive framework that classifies facts from geography to demographics, technology, and economy, making it possible to see patterns across different fields.
It argues for a scientific, real?world approach to social data, showing how tables can be read as a balance sheet of territory, production, and the effects of life and work on people. The work emphasizes how organizing information this way can support practical economics and guide conduct, without relying on unfounded theories.
- Learn the structure of the primary tables, from Territory to Production, to Organisms, Occupations, Partition, Use, and Result.
- See how the left (debt) and right (credit) sides of the balance sheet illuminate social facts and relationships.
- Discover how the classification unites economics with biology, demography, anthropology, and education.
- Understand how the framework aims to be universal, applicable to any society, and useful for researchers and practitioners.
Ideal for readers curious about how data can be organized to reveal social laws and for those seeking a practical, science?driven approach to economics and statistics.

Paperback. Etat : New. Print on Demand. This text is an extract from a book discussing the classification of statistics. The author believes that the vast and constantly increasing collection of statistical information requires a fundamental scientific idea to introduce uniformity, and proposes a classification based on the idea of the human organism. The author argues that the field of history might at first sight seem coextensive with that of statistics, and both might seem to extend to all the sciences, but the scope of statistics and history becomes restrained, and they can be distinguished according to the criteria proposed. The author believes that a classification of social statistics is needed, and it should be natural, not artificial; must be capable of complete specialization, so as to include the minutest details, and capable, too, of the widest generalization; it must be universal in application, and it must be, as far as possible, simple of understanding, and convenient in use. The author believes that biology is the only science that has successfully classified phenomena in this way, and proposes using its methods as a model for classifying social statistics. The author presents a series of tables that classify statistical information according to various criteria, and argues that this system of classification will allow for a more comprehensive and scientific understanding of social phenomena.
