Quarter leather and paper. No Jacket. First Edition. A Treatise of the Materia Medica, by William Cullen, M.D., Volume I. William Cullen FRS FRSE FRCPE (15 April 1710 - 5 February 1790) was a British physician, chemist and agriculturalist from Hamilton, Scotland, who also served as a professor at the Edinburgh Medical School. Cullen was a central figure in the Scottish Enlightenment: He was David Hume's physician, and was friends with Joseph Black, Henry Home, Adam Ferguson, John Millar, and Adam Smith, among others. He was president of the Royal College of Physicians and Surgeons of Glasgow (1746-47), president of the Royal College of Physicians of Edinburgh (1773-1775) and first physician to the king in Scotland (1773-1790). He also assisted in obtaining a royal charter for the Philosophical Society of Edinburgh, resulting in the formation of the Royal Society of Edinburgh in 1783. Cullen's final publication, Materia Medica, in two volumes, was highly valued by other medical practitioners throughout Europe. [Source: Wiki] Hardback, first edition.
