The Institute of Actuaries was founded in 1848 and contributed to the study of the theory of life contingencies, enabling an exchange of ideas between its members and bringing about a greater consistency in their methods. Its aims were advanced by the publication of its Journal, originally called The Assurance Magazine, which first appeared in September 1850. The magazine was founded by two well-known actuaries, Charles Jellicoe and Samuel Brown, and was adopted as the organ of the Institute of Actuaries in 1852. Jellicoe continued as its editor until 1867 when he was succeeded by T. B. Sprague. Good .

[RUDDIMAN (Thomas) GOODALL (Walter) and BROWN (Alexander) Compilers.]

A Catalogue of the Library of the Faculty of Advocates, Edinburgh.

Edinburgh: Printed by Thomas, Walter, and Thomas Ruddiman, [Printed by Balfour and Smellie; Printed by Alex. Smellie], 1742-1776-1807. First edition, 3 vols., folio (330 x 215 mm), [6], 649, [1]; [4], 598; [4], 468pp., printed in double-column, foxing to endpapers and first and last few leaves, otherwise generally very clear, marbled endpapers, cont. calf, edges rubbed, both upper and lower boards with large ornate strap-work centrepiece in blind, rebacked, with contrasting leather labels lettered in gilt. The National Library of Scotland, though officially inaugurated only in 1925, had its origins in the much older institution, the Library of the Advocates which was established in a rented house in the corner of the Parliament Close of Edinburgh in 1682. "The 1742 catalogue was admirably compiled by Thomas Ruddiman, printer and scholar, who was one of a number of notable librarians during the eighteenth century. Another was David Hume the philosopher, who succeeded Ruddiman in 1752 and held office till 1757... As time went on the Library increasingly assumed a national character, and became a place of deposit for material relating to the history and literature of Scotland."—Kelly. Provenance: Booksellers ticket of Manners & Miller, Edinburgh (1790s fl.); From the library of Frances Mary Richardson Currer (1785-1861) with her bookplate, front fly-leaf 'bought of Manners & Miller, Edinburgh, 1819'; Armorial bookplate of Thomas Falconer (1805-1882); Cardiff Free Library.

The Creation of the Modern Ministry of Finance in Siam, 1885-1910

Macmillan, 1992. Hardcover. Pp: 146. In the late 1880s, King Chulalongkorn of Siam initiated a major programme of internal reform. These reforms - the objectives that were being sought and the success that was achieved - have had a major influence in shaping the character of the modern Thai state. Using Thai-language archival material, this book examines a crucial element in the dismantling of the traditional government structure and the installation of a Western-style administration - the creation of a modern Ministry of Finance. It focuses on the new Ministry's struggle to establish a measure of central control over the kingdom's revenues and the government's expenditures, setting that struggle and its outcome in the context of the aims, and the limitations, of the Chulalongkorn reforms.
