William Stanley Jevons
William Stanley Jevons September 1 August 13 English economist and logician , was born in Liverpool . He expounded in his book The Theory of Political Economy (1871) the "final" (marginal) utility theory of value. Jevons' work, along with similar discoveries made by Carl Menger in Vienna (1871) and by Léon Walras in Switzerland ), marked the opening of a new period in the history of economic thought. Jevons broke off his studies of the natural sciences in London in 1854 to work as an assayer in Sydney , where he acquired an interest in political economy . Returning to England in 1859, he published General Mathematical Theory of Political Economy in 1862, outlining the marginal utility theory of value, and A Serious Fall in the Value of Gold in 1863. For Jevons, the utility or value to a consumer of an additional unit of a product is inversely related to the number of units of that product he already owns, at least beyond some critical quantity. It was for The Coal Question (1865), in which he called attention to the gradual exhaustion of Britain's coal supplies, that he received public recognition. The most important of his works on

Stanley Jevons 's father was Thomas Jevons and his mother was Mary Anne Roscoe. Thomas Jevons was an iron merchant but showed lots of talent both as an inventor of iron boats and as a writer on various legal and economic topics. Mary Anne Roscoe was the daughter of the historian William Roscoe. Thomas and Mary Roscoe had eleven children and Stanley was the ninth. The family were Unitarians, a liberal branch of the Protestant Church that bases its religious beliefs on reason, and Stanley was brought up with these beliefs. There is very clear evidence in Jevons later writings of the Unitarian influence. Stanley was sent to London to became a boarder at University College School in 1850. In the following year, still only sixteen years of age, he entered University College with a view to study chemistry and botany. He later wrote that his interest in the way that society worked began in his early days as a student, particularly since he could observe the condition of the poor in London as he walked about the city. He wrote (see [5]):- I began to think that I could and ought to do more than others. A vague desire and determination grew upon me.

    William Stanley Jevons, 1835-1882.
    English economist and logician whom, simultaneously with Carl Menger and Léon Walras , launched the Marginalist Revolution of 1871-4 that gave birth to Neoclassical economics. Stanley Jevons (as he preferred to be called) was born in Liverpool on September 1, 1835, the ninth child of a family of prosperous iron merchants. However, the death of his mother in 1845 and the collapse of the family firm in 1848 circumscribed Jevons's opportunities. His early education was acquired at home, the Liverpool Mechanics Institute and finally at a preparatory school in London. As a Unitarian (a liberal non-conformist Protestant sect), Jevons was legally barred from taking the traditional educational route through Oxford, Cambridge, etc. So, in 1852, Jevons entered University College London (UCL), a Benthamite institution that accepted non-conformists, to study chemistry, mathematics and logic. It was here that he came under the influence of the logician Augustus De Morgan. However, financial circumstance forced him to withdraw in his second year and accept a post as Assayer at the new Royal Mint in Sydney, Australia. After arriving in Sydney in 1854, Jevons spent his spare time (and there was plenty of it) studying the climate, geography, geology and flora of Australia. He took daily meteorological observations and hobnobbed with the local scientific community. A local dispute over railway funding led Jevons to study up on economics. Jevons read Dionysus Lardner's 1850 book

    html Markup: Andy Blunden 1. The following paper briefly describes the nature of a Theory of Economy which will reduce the main problem of this science to a mathematical form. Economy, indeed, being concerned with quantities, has always of necessity been mathematical in its subject, but the strict and general statement, and the easy comprehension of its quantitative laws has been prevented by a neglect of those powerful methods of expression which have been applied to most other sciences with so much success. It is not to be supposed, however, that because economy becomes mathematical in form, it will, therefore, become a matter of rigorous calculation. Its mathematical principles may become formal and certain, while its individual data remain as inexact as ever. Economy investigates the relations of ordinary pleasures and pains thus arising, and it has a wide enough field of inquiry. But economy does not treat of all human motives. There are motives nearly always present with us, arising from conscience, compassion, or from some moral or religious source, which economy cannot and does not pretend to treat. These will remain to us as outstanding and disturbing forces; they must be treated, if at all, by other appropriate branches of knowledge.

After working in Australia as assayer to the mint, he taught at Owens College, Manchester, and University College, London. His major contribution to economics was his marginal utility theory of value; Jevons held that value was determined by utility, and he demonstrated the relationship in mathematical terms. The Theory of Political Economy (1871) was his chief theoretical work. His practical application of economics in The Coal Question (1865) influenced government action. In General Mathematical Theory of Political Economy (1862), he demonstrated his belief in the application of mathematics to economic theory. His several texts include Pure Logic (1863) and The Principles of Science See his Letters and Journal (ed. by his wife, 1886).

    Jevons, William Stanley (1835-1 882)
    Jevons was the ninth child of Thomas Jevons, a Liverpool iron merchant, and Mary Arm, daughter of William Roscoe, a noted banker, historian and art collector of the same city. The family were Unitarians and Stanley's background was thus that of a cultured and well-to-do Nonconformist family; but his childhood was shadowed by the death of his mother in 1845, the t'nental illness of his eldest brother, which began in 1847; and the failure of the family business in 1848. Jevons's schooling, begun at the Mechanics Institute High School in Liverpool, was continued at University College School, London, and in 1851 he entered University College London itself to study chemistry and mathematics. At this stage Jevons apparently intended to enter a business career without completing his degree but when a post as assayer to the newly established Mint in Sydney, Australia, was offered to him in 1853 he decided to take it, encouraged by his father, whose finances had never been restored after the family bankruptcy in 1848. Jevons spent the years from 1854 to 1859 in Australia, applying his knowledge of chemistry at the Sydney Mint and studying, mainly botany and meteorology, in his spare time. From 1857 onwards his interest turned towards social and economic questions; he began to see his life-work as lying in 'the study of Man' and decided that this involved returning to England to improve his academic qualifications. Arriving home in September 1859 he re-enrolled at University College London, completing his BA in 1860 and then the MA course in 1862.
