520 8  Adolphe Quetelet was an influential scientist whose 
       controversial work on social physics was praised by 
       American reformers, but condemned by John Stuart Mill and 
       Charles Dickens. 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.
