Hardcover. Condizione: Very Good. First Edition. [9], 26 pp., [2 index], Latin text, woodcut device on title, two large woodcut illustrations, ornamental initials, headpieces, modern vellum-backed marbled boards, new endpapers, from the Giancarlo Library of Scientific Books, Sub Signum Leonis [heirs of C.T. Navó]. Reprint of a treatise on the qualities of the balsamum tree, first published in Venice in 1511. After obtaining his doctor's degree in 1578, Alpini settled as a physician in Campo San Pietro, a small town in the Paduan territory. But his tastes were botanical, and to extend his knowledge of exotic plants he travelled to Egypt in 1580 as physician to George Emo or Hemi, the Venetian consul in Cairo. In Egypt he spent three years, and from a practice in the management of date palms, which he observed in that country, he seems to have deduced the doctrine of the sexual difference of plants, which was adopted as the foundation of the Linnaean taxonomy system. He says that "the female date-trees or palms do not bear fruit unless the branches of the male and female plants are mixed together; or, as is generally done, unless the dust found in the male sheath or male flowers is sprinkled over the female flowers".

Hardcover. Condizione: Good. [24], 325 pp., [47, index], [2] / pages 73-258, [2, index], 8 engraved plates, title printed in red and black, contemporary soiled vellum, spine title ink,speckled outer edges, copy in very good condition. Alpini (1553-1617) was an Italian physician and botanist. This work was the first important work on the history of Egyptian medicine and this is a later edition of Garrisson & Morton 6468, Norman 39 & Osler 1706 (all citing one first edition 1591); Heirs 384 (1646 ed.). Jacobus Bontius or Jacques de Bondt (1592-1631) was a Dutch doctor and botanist. He travelled to Persia and Indonesia to study the botany of the area. He died on the island of Java, and he was the first to study cholera on the island of Batavia in 1689 before it was known in Europe. His botanic and medical works were published after his death by Dr. Pison. (For more information about him see Garrisson & Morton 2263 & 3736). His work: "'was probably the first to regard tropical medicine as an independent branch of medical science. He spent the last four years of his life in the Dutch East Indies, and his book incorporates the experience he gained there. It is the first Dutch work on tropical medicine and includes the first modern descriptions of beri-beri and cholera" (GM 2263, citing first edition, 1642); Heirs 463 (1642 edition). Prosperi Alpini spent three years in Egypt studying botany and hygiene as a companion to the Venetian Consul Giorgio Emo in 1581. He spent there nearly four years. This work is considered "One of the earliest European studies of non western medicine. Alpini's work dealt primarily with contemporary (i.e. Arabic) practices observed during his sojourn in Egypt. These included moxibustion- the production of counter-irritation by placing burning or heated material on the skin - which Alpini introduced into European medicine . Alpini also mentioned coffee for the first time in this work" ( Norman). #33548.
