Synopsis

This historical work, "English Life Table. Tables of Lifetimes, Annuities, and Premiums", presents detailed life tables and actuarial calculations prepared by the General Register Office of Great Britain and William Farr in 1864. It offers a comprehensive analysis of mortality rates and life expectancies in 19th-century England.

The tables provide valuable insights into the demographic trends and public health conditions of the time. Actuaries, historians, demographers, and those interested in the history of statistics will find this a useful primary source. The calculations of annuities and premiums reflect the financial practices surrounding life insurance and investment during that era. This volume serves as a fascinating glimpse into the statistical methodologies used to understand and manage population health and financial risk in Victorian England.
