Palau 156391; Gunther Astrolabes P. 570 & 591; USTC 149570. Early edition first published in 1519. The only book printed by Jean Barbé who is commonly thought to have also illustrated the book. A famous treatise on the use of the astrolabe by a lecturer in the Collège Royale first printed in Paris in 1519 by Henri Estienne and reprinted there at least seven times the last in 1557. RARE: According to online records only one complete copy of this work to sell at auction to appear since 1964. Johannes Martinus Población was a prominent Spanish physician mathematician and astronomer from Valencia who achieved great fame in 16th-century European humanist circles. His most celebrated work is De usu astrolabi compendium A Compendium on the Use of the Astrolabe first published in Paris around 1519. The book served as a highly practical best-selling 16th-century manual. The first part carefully describes the astronomy tool. The second part details its application in solving real-world problems regarding topography geometry seamanship and geography. An astrolabe is an astronomical instrument dating to ancient times. It serves as a star chart and physical model of the visible half-dome of the sky. Its various functions also make it an elaborate inclinometer and an analog calculation device capable of working out several kinds of problems in astronomy. In its simplest form it is a metal disc with a pattern of wires cutouts and perforations that allows a user to calculate astronomical positions precisely. It is able to measure the altitude above the horizon of a celestial body day or night; it can be used to identify stars or planets to determine local latitude given local time and vice versa to survey or to triangulate. It was used in classical antiquity the Byzantine Empire the Islamic Golden Age the European Middle Ages and the Age of Discovery for all these purposes. The astrolabe which is a precursor to the sextant is effective for determining latitude on land or calm seas. Although it is less reliable on the heaving deck of a ship in rough seas the mariner's astrolabe was developed to solve that problem.

réf. A9780309304030Paperback / softback. New. SMART Vaccines - Strategic Multi-Attribute Ranking Tool for Vaccines - is a prioritization software tool developed by the Institute of Medicine that utilizes decision science and modeling to help inform choices among candidates for new vaccine development. A blueprint for this computer-based guide was presented in the 2012 report Ranking Vaccines: A Prioritization Framework: Phase I. The 2013 Phase II report refined a beta version of the model developed in the Phase I report. Ranking Vaccines: Applications of a Prioritization Software Tool: Phase III: Use Case Studies and Data Framework extends this project by demonstrating the practical applications of SMART Vaccines through use case scenarios in partnership with the Public Health Agency of Canada New York State Department of Health and the Serum Institute of India. This report also explores a novel application of SMART Vaccines in determining new vaccine product profiles and offers practical strategies for data synthesis and estimation to encourage the broader use of the software. paperback
