‎De urinis et pulsibus de missione sanguinis de febribus de morbis capitis et pectoris. Inscribed Presentation Copy‎

‎Bologna: ex typographia HH. Antonij Pisarrii 1683. First edition. <p> Inscribed by Bellini</p> <p>Bellini Lorenzo 1643-1704. De urinis et pulsibus de missione sanguinis de febribus de morbis capitis et pectoris. 4to. 20 606 i.e. 608pp. Woodcut ornaments. Bologna: ex typographia HH. Antonij Pisarrii 1683. 216 x 161 mm. Vellum c. 1683 title hand-inked on spine. Leaf Aaaa2 torn and repaired at an early date without loss of text otherwise a fine copy. Presentation copy from the author inscribed at the foot of the title: "All' Illmo Conte Tommaso della Gherardesca. l'Autore." </p> <p>First Edition inscribed by the author. This is the first inscribed copy of a major seventeenth century medical classic that has been on the market in more than a decade. Bellini professor of anatomy and medical theory at Pisa was one of the Italian founders of iatromechanics a system that framed physiologic events such as the circulation of the blood in terms of mathematical and physical principles. Bellini's De urinis et pulsibus represents the first important attempt by an Italian scientist to systematically apply iatromechanics to medical theory. "William Harvey's theory of the circulation was of fundamental importance to Bellini and other proponents of iatromechanism. Bellini asserted that good health depended on optimal function of the circulation of the blood and that disease was a manifestation of an inefficient circulation. Rejecting ancient humoral pathology he viewed blood as a physical fluid with specific properties that could be interpreted in terms of mathematical and physical principles. . . . Bellini emphasized that disease was often due to alterations in the elasticity or 'tone' of the solids or in the density of the fluids which hindered their motion. This in turn could cause local congestion or stagnation. Bellini's enthusiastic support of therapeutic bleeding reflected this pathophysiologic concept. He tried to prove that this phlebotomy increased the velocity of the circulation thereby washing away 'morbid matter' and restoring health" Fye pp. 181-82. </p> <p>In the book's section on diseases of the chest Bellini reported "several forms of heart disease especially of the syncopal type . . . in his book De urinis et pulsibus Bellini discusses the state of the coronary arteries and admits that the condition which he calls 'pressio' is dangerous and may cause the contraction of the heart to be abolished p. 541. He also has in mind external pressure by tumors fat and so on. However an intra-arterial coronary impediment of blood-flow by calcification was clearly described by this author. Bellini reported of a patient who died of a condition similar to the clinical picture of coronary disease as we now understand it in whose coronary arteries he found a 'stone.' It seems quite reasonable to deduce that Bellini saw in the post-mortem a coronary occlusion" Leibowitz History of Coronary Heart Disease p. 71. </p> <p>Bellini's work is also important in the history of urology as it marks the first important contribution to the chemical analysis of urine. Recognizing the value of urine as a diagnostic aid Bellini insisted on its chemical analysis in pathologic conditions. </p> <p>Bellini presented this copy of De urinis et pulsibus to Tommaso della Gherardesca 1654-1721 a distinguished member of an important Tuscan aristocratic family and as such a likely patron. Gherardesca was appointed bishop of Fiesole in 1702 and archbishop of Florence in 1703; he also founded the Seminario Maggiori di Firenze in 1712. The rarity of this inscription by Bellini cannot be overestimated. This is the first inscribed book by Bellini we have seen on the market in more than 40 years and it is also the first inscribed copy of a major seventeenth century classic on any aspect of medicine that we have seen on the market in more than a decade possibly longer. In addition this copy is clearly in the original binding in which it was presented and with the exception of one leaf which was inexplicably torn through and repaired the copy is in fine even very fine condition for a work of this period</p> . <p>Garrison-Morton 762.1 4162.

‎Madrid: Zuniga 1746. 1st edition. Quarto 23 leaves 168 pp; 4 leaves 96 pp. Both of the superb copper-engraved frontispieces are present. Boturini an Italian who came to Mexico in 1736 from Spain and became enamored of the cult of the Virigin of Guadalupe. He became a hermit on the hill of Tepeyac for a time and also conceived the idea of writing a history of the pre-conquest indians of Mexico. He was fluent in Najuatl travelling around and collecting an amazing coll ection of early and original indian material for a number of years. This excited the suspicion of the Viceroy who had him arrested and sent to the Inquisition in Spain for imprisonment. His ship was captured by English pirates but he was finally put ashore at Gibraltar. His priceless collection was confiscated and dispersed over many years. He was exonerated in Spain and even honored by an official post as Historian of the Indies but never was able to get possession of his collection. This is a very nice copy clean and crisp; the binding looks to be Mexican early 19th century half red leather with decorative flourishes on the spine over black pebbled boards. <br/><br/> Zuniga hardcover books‎

Both are scarce with only a few copies shown in OCLC for the first title and a half dozen for the second. Chemical Manipulations is intended as a manual for use in the laboratory and covers much ground containing a brief summary of the Principles of Chemistry and Chemical Analysis and part II contains the Special Analyses prescribed in the Programme of Instruction. Instruction in photography reviews various processes both theoretical and practical and contains useful "short examples" where there is a stated problem with printing for instance and possible reasons and solutions are presented. As with many military manuals these are focused on practical considerations for the military rather than theory accessible only to the elite. United States Artillery School unknown books‎
