Description:
Paris, Rue et Hotel Serpente (ma Imprimerie de Demonville al colophon), 1781, 8° (cm. 19 x 11,5) legatura in piena bazzana coeva, dorso a 5 nervi con tassello, titoli e fregi dorati, tagli rossi, risguardi in carta francese, pp. XVI-742-(2) con 9 tavole incise in rame e ripiegate fuori testo. Sigaud de la Fond (1730-1819) subentrò a Nollet alla cattedra di fisica sperimentale del Collegio Louis-le-Grand. Insegnò diverse materie, comprese anatomia e fisiologia, ma il suo più rilevante contributo alla scienza fu nel campo della tecnica sperimentale. Fu un grande divulgatore, conquistando attraverso le sue pubblicazioni un gran numero di laici illuminati. Il Wheeler Gift Catalogue attribuisce a questa opera il merito di dibattere con chiarezza i fenomeni e le leggi dell'elettricità e di tracciare il loro sviluppo storico. L'autore tratta inoltre i fenomeni elettromagnetici e la loro applicazione nel trattamento delle malattie. Lievi abrasioni e spellature alla legatura; fresco e croccante l'interno;…

Paris:: Rue et Hotel Serpente, 1785., 1785. 200 x 125 mm. 8vo. xvi, [4], 624 pp. Half-title, 10 folding engraved copperplates (by Sellier), [pl. 3 has a manuscript annotation relating to the electrical machine of the author's design], errata; lacks the 2 privilege leaves at end. Contemporary calf-backed marbled boards; cover corners showing, joints mended with kozo. 19th-century stamp on title and elsewhere of Binet Dufour; inscription "Electrobiologique Traitement Electropathique, Par M. Guerin, Boulevard de Strasbourg. . ." Occasional neat manuscript ink corrections or marginalia. Very good. Second edition of a work on electricity and magnetism originally published in 1781. The work mentions a number of electrical devices used to make demonstrations and experiments. This period marks a stark contrast in instruments used for experiments and instruments used for demonstrations. See: Thomas L. Hankins, Robert J. Silverman, Instruments and the Imagination, 2014, p. 58. / "The final, greatly enlarged…

"While preparing for his medical degree, Sigaud de la Fond (1730-1810) attended the famous course of public lectures given by Abbé Nollet, who aroused in him such a lively interest in experimental science…
