Edmond Halley (1656–1742), an English astronomer, geophysicist, mathematician, meteorologist and physicist, who published in 1693 an article on life annuities, in which he analyzed the age-at-death on the basis of the city of Breslau statistics provided by Caspar Nemann (a clergyman from Breslau who had a special interest in mortality rates). Thus Halley influenced the developing of actuarial science. His work followed a more primitive work by Graunt, and is one of the most important studies in the history of demography.
