His long and distinguished career brought him into contact with many of the Victorian intellectual elite, including Goethe, Malthus, Babbage, Herschel and Faraday. His theories even helped inspire Dostoyevsky to write Crime and Punishment. Donnelly presents the first scholarly biography of Quetelet, exploring his contribution to quantitative reasoning and his place in nineteenth-century intellectual history. 588 0 PDF (JSTOR, viewed Aug. 9, 2016). 590 eBooks on EBSCOhost|bEBSCO eBook Subscription Academic Collection - North America 600 10 Quetelet, Adolphe,|d1796-1874.|0https://id.loc.gov/ authorities/names/n50050539 600 17 Quetelet, Adolphe,|d1796-1874.|2fast|0https:// id.worldcat.org/fast/17169 648 7 19th century|2fast 648 7 1800-1899|2fast 650 0 Science|xHistory|y19th century.|0https://id.loc.gov/ authorities/subjects/sh2008111329 650 0 Intellectual life|xHistory|0https://id.loc.gov/authorities /subjects/sh85067166|y19th century.|0https://id.loc.gov/ authorities/subjects/sh2002012475 650 7 Science.|2fast|0https://id.worldcat.org/fast/1108176 650 7 History.|2fast|0https://id.worldcat.org/fast/958235 650 7 Intellectual life.|2fast|0https://id.worldcat.org/fast/ 975769 655 4 Electronic books. 655 7 History.|2fast|0https://id.worldcat.org/fast/1411628 830 0 Science and culture in the nineteenth century ;|0https:// id.loc.gov/authorities/names/no2007096396|vno. 27. 856 40 |uhttps://rider.idm.oclc.org/login?url=http:// search.ebscohost.com/login.aspx?direct=true&scope=site& db=nlebk&AN=1356263|zOnline eBook.
