Observationem Physico-Chymicorum Selectorum Libri III In Quibus Multa Curiosa Experimenta et Lectissimae Virtutis Medicamenta Exhibentus Ad Solidam et Rationalem Chymiam Stabilicodam Praemissi
Napoli: Benedicti Gessari 1755. 1st Edition. Hardcover. Very Good/No Jacket. Hoffmann 1660-1742 German chemist personal physician of Frederick I in Berlin was professor of medicine in Halle author of treatises on the analysis of mineral waters on magnesia alba and founder of chemical analysis. Hoffmann advocates a rational and systematic medicine with which he takes an intermediate position between Stahl's animistic vitalism and Boerhaave's mechanism. This is the third edition first in 1722. Friedrich Hoffmann s Observationum Physico-Chymicorum Selectorum is highly valued 18th-century work that reflects the intersection of chemistry medicine and natural philosophy during the early Enlightenment period. Hoffmann was instrumental in the development of iatrochemistry the application of chemistry to medicine and was a major advocate of mechanistic physiology. BOOK DETAILS AND CONDITION: Large 4to in possibly contemporary buff heavy cardboard bound with leather cords cont. writing on spine: 1 blank 6 leaves pp 1-288 i.e. 188 since pp 177-188 the index misnumbered as pp 278-288. Curiously this is reminiscent of very similar misnumbering in two different Venice editions of 1740 see Neville I pp 646-647. Overall VG. Napoli: Benedicti Gessari hardcover

Hoffmann, Roald, and Schmidt, Shira Leibowitz
Old Wine New Flasks; Reflections on Science and Jewish Tradition
New York N.Y.: W. H. Freeman and Company 1997. First Printing Stated. Hardcover. Very good/Very good. xii 362 10 pages. Heavily illustrated including 10 color plates. Some Hebrew and Yiddish but this is an English language work. Inscribed by the author Roald Hoffmann on the front free endpaper. Inscription reads: For Maxine and family with friendship Roald in Ithaca 1997. Includes a post care with a photograph of Cordoba and a hand written note which states: Dear Maxine You don't have to be religious etc. to enjoy this book. See a good photo of me in Plate 6. with affection Roald 8/28/97. Includes Preface Epilogue and How We Came to Old Wine New Flasks With a Little Help From Our Friends. Also includes Notes Credits Glossary of Hebrew and Yiddish and Index as well as chapters on Is Nature Natural; A Sukkah from an Elephant; You Must Not Deviate to the Right or the Left; Bitter Waters Run Sweet; The Flag That Came out of the Blue: A Play in Three Acts and Two Intermezzi; Signs and Portents: No Parking in the Courtroom; Pure/Impure; and Camel Caravans in the Pentagon. Roald Hoffmann born Roald Safran; July 18 1937 is a Polish-American theoretical chemist who won the 1981 Nobel Prize in Chemistry. He has also published plays and poetry. He is the Frank H. T. Rhodes Professor of Humane Letters Emeritus at Cornell University in Ithaca New York. Hoffmann received the 1981 Nobel Prize in chemistry sharing it with Japanese chemist Kenichi Fukui. Shira Leibowitz Schmidt is an engineer translator essayist mother of six and teacher of English as a foreign language at Netanya Academic College in Israel. The religious convictions and expertise of the authors of this book differ. As a consequence Old Wine New Flasks explores a dialogic contrapuntal form. Many of the chapters are exchanges or debates. In this way the underlying tension of the agnostic and the religious is exposed and two faces of contemporary man and woman come into view. The authors contend in structured harmony and not taking themselves too seriously with a shared respect for the underlying unity of all knowledge. Such contention is actually a time-honored way of Jewish debate. And in another way such debate is at the heart of science. Exploring the fundamental harmony along the continuum between scientific inquiry and religion the authors of this text examine a series of encompassing issues such as purity perception authority precision and the supernatural comparing how each is handled in the realm of science art/poetry and Jewish scholarship. The result of the study provides a range of contemporary values that arrive at a respect and appreciation for the underlying unity of all knowledge. W. H. Freeman and Company hardcover
