Crépel, Pierre The first manuscript of Condorcet on the calculus of probability (1772). (Le premier manuscrit de Condorcet sur le calcul des probabilités (1772).) (French) Zbl 0632.01012 Hist. Math. 14, 282-283 (1987). A small book on the probability calculus prepared by A. Condorcet, dating to 1772, was never published due to his execution and was thought to have survived in manuscript form in part only. A missing portion recently rediscovered goes to make a coherent whole, which will be published soon. This note gives the editors’ summary.
