Achievement Graunt, along with William Petty, developed early human

statistical and census methods that later provided a framework for modern demography. He is credited with producing the first life table, giving probabilities of survival to each age. Graunt is also considered as one of the first experts in epidemiology, since his famous book was concerned mostly with public health statistics. His book Natural and Political Observations Made upon the Bills of Mortality (1662 Old Style or 1663 New Style) used analysis of the mortality rolls in early modern London as Charles II and other officials attempted to create a system to warn of the onset and spread of bubonicplague in the city. Though the system was never truly created, Graunt's work in studying the rolls resulted in the first statistically based estimation of the population of London.

Comment & Opinion about John Graunt

We salute his totallity contribution for the development of medical statistics and demography. John Graunt was actually a haberdasher . which did not stop him being accepted into the Royal Society. He did well in business. By the time of the Great Fire (1666) he had become "an opulent merchant of London, of great weight and consideration in the city." He was known as a great peacemaker and was often chosen an arbitrator between disputing merchants. He held several offices in the Drapers' Company. He had a well developed interest in art. He was a friend of the miniaturist Samuel Cooper and of the portrait painter John Hayls (Hales). He was also an important collector.
