London: Royal College of Physicians, 2018. Facsimile reprint. Small quarto, pp (20), 184, (18), xvi, a very good new copy. A reproduction of the College library copy, complete with its stains and annotations; the binding reproduces that of the College copy also. [The Pharmacopoea Londinensis of May 1618 is a historical landmark, the coming together of the College of Physicians and London apothecaries to produce the first pharmacopoeia in the world that was mandatory on a whole country; the first legally binding regulation of pharmacy and dispensing. Less than a dozen copies of the original are known of this, arguably, the most important publication that the College has ever produced. Produced here in facsimile from a copy in the College library to celebrate the 400th anniversary of its publication, and with a comprehensive epilogue and bibliography on its historic origins by Dr Henry Oakeley FRCP, it is a record of our Colleges illustrious past and its contribution to the world, and a work book for medical historians, herbalists, pharmacists and physicians with a serious interest in the history of medicines.]. First Thus. Boards. Very Good.
