Sobre este artículo
London: T. Cox, 1729 First edition in English. Contemporary calf, rebacked. Gilt-decorated spine with red morocco label. . Octavo. Copper-engraved title-page vignette. Some wear to back cover, occasional minor soiling. Generally a very good, clean copy. John Freind (1675-1728), who was educated at Christ Church, Oxford, was a prominent London physician, Fellow of the Royal Society, and later, a Tory M.P. for Launceton. He wrote a number of medical texts. His most important book was his History of Physic (1725-6). He has been called the first English historian of medicine. The present book first appeared in Latin in 1703. It deals with women and "the nature of their menstruous purgation." Emmenologia, "displays a leaning toward mechanistic physiology, but most of his other medical works are concerned with therapeutics" (Marie Boas Hall, DSB).

Our office is located in Los Angeles on West Third Street, between the Beverly Center and Farmer's Market. Though we gave up an open shop after more than thirty years, we welcome serious customers and dealers. We are normally open from 10 to 6 Monday through Saturday. Since some of our less expensive books are located in a temperature-controlled storage area offsite, you may want to call ahead of time to insure that the book you want to see will be available. We feature a stock strong in literature, history, Western philosophy, women's studies, education, history of science and fine printing and artists' books. We are members of the Antiquarian Booksellers Association of America and the International League of Antiquarian Booksellers. We have books from the 15th to the 20th century in all prices ranges. We do appraisals for income tax and insurance purposes. We purchase individual books and libraries. Proprietor: Carol Sandberg
