Harriet Martineau is the sociologist who translated the works of Auguste Comte into English and emphasized the impact the economy, laws, trade, and population could have on contemporary social problems.
Martineau wrote many books and a multitude of essays from a sociological, holistic, religious, domestic, and perhaps most controversially, feminine perspective. She also translated various works by Auguste Comte, and she earned enough to support herself entirely by her writing, a rare feat for a woman in the Victorian era.
