2 volumes. Adam Black and John Stark, Edinburgh 1828. 8vo. VI+[I]+527 + [4]+515 pages. IV+VIII engraved plates.

Educated at Trinity College Cambridge, he served as ambassador to Berlin and other trusted offices. His son Gilbert John 4th Earl (1845-1914, served as Viceroy and Governor-General of India) used the same stamp, but it seems likely that this book would have sat more naturally in the library of the 3rd Earl.

Very good. * The formula of the 'Sqauring the Circle' has been a mathematical puzzle since the days of Ancient Greece.

Paulsen's book on the same subject, planned to be published. Nevertheless, the work was never published - most likely because Paulsen had not solved the riddle anyway: His advertisement show his first attampts, so somebody must have countered him before the process continued.

I lyset af omvæltningerne i såvel Danmark som i det øvrige Europa udsendte den højt begavede mediciner FD (1827-53) skriftet "Folkenes Fremtid" og denne pamflet, der i dansk sammenhæng skulle vise sig at være langt forud for deres tid. "Han var en forløber for meget, der skulle komme, især for den socialdemokratiske arbejderbevægelse; (..). Han var mere påvirket af Stirner og Proudhon end af Marx og Engels (som han dog også har kendt), men hans forståelse af klassemodsætningerne løfter ham højt over enhver utopisme." (Vagn Dybdahl, DBL 4,42).
