Re; "I WANT TO NOW IF YOU HAVE THE BOOK OF CONDORSET "CONSIDERATIONS
ABOUT OF PROGRESS OF HUMAN SPIRIT" (OR SOMETHING LIKE THAT) ."
"Sketch for a historical picture of the progress of the human mind"
(1793) is in:
K.M. Baker (ed) 'Condorcet: selected writings' Bobbs-Merrill 1976
ISBN 0-672-60381-0.
I have only just managed to get hold of a copy, and its GREAT for
voting methods, and will certainly be of interest to political
scientists generally.
The British library doesn't have a copy, but managed to get one from:
Frewen library
University of Portsmouth
Cambridge Road
PORTSMOUTH
P01 2ST
BL code XW/C-3.
Accession no.: PP 7706938
I have it until 22 Dec.
P.S. Condorcet was also a pioneer of library science.
Cheers.
