Al verso dei frontespizi piccoli timbri di possesso. Interessante e poco nota opera di fisica sperimentale e sienze naturali del gesuita spagnolo Francesco Perez (1720-1807 Bologna), matematico e missionario in Ecuador, Quito, fino alla espulsione dei gesuiti dai domini spagnoli (1767); in Italia si dedicò alla scrittura di opere scientifiche che vennero pubblicate dopo la soppressione della Compagnia nel 1773. Il suo nome è legato anche all’invenzione di strumenti scientifici, tra cui uno per misurare gli angoli. Oggetto del trattato il Barometro, “istrumento in grado eminente per condurre l’intelletto alla cognizione dell’elemento dell’aria”, e il Termometro, strumenti dei quali si ricordano gli inventori, i metodi costruttivi, le evoluzioni tecniche; si esaminano le differenze tra aria e atmosfera, “l’elasticità” della materia eterea, l’atmosfera equinoziale dell’America, specialmente delle montagne e vulcani dell’Ecuador (Caraburo, Oyambaro, Pichincha Pambamarca ecc.) dove l’atmosfera fu misurata con l’aerometro, come ampiamente si descrive nella seconda parte. Un capitolo, in fine, è dedicato all’atmosfera europea.

He has been informed by 'Mr. Hill of the Victoria & Albert Museum' that Harington has 'a Backstaff'. Adams has been 'looking out for one for some years' without success and would like to purchase Harington's if he has 'no use for it. 'I think Mr. Hill mentioned to you that I had a collection of old navigating instruments & he has very kindly been trying to find a backstaff for me'. He ends in the hope that Harington will 'excuse the zeal of the collector'. According to Bruyns and Dunn 'Sextants at Greenwich' 2009 Adams' search for a backstaff proved unsuccessful.
