1747ref. 52088à Amsterdam: Chez Pierre Mortier 1747. Fine. Chez Pierre Mortier à Amsterdam 1747 10 x 17 cm relié First edition.

Tar water was a medicine used since the Middle Ages composed of pine or birch tar. Its use spread in 18th-century England. Berkeley describes for the first time its use in a wide variety of cases and wonders whether it might not be the universal panacea. He extrapolates as to its efficacy from a study of mind and soul of which ether would be the divine instrument and the thing that binds beings together. Tar water would be used in various forms until the end of the 19th century. Bergson particularly appreciated the philosophical qualities of the treatise. Chez Pierre Mortier unknown
