Editio nova, 1 vol. in-8 cartonnage ancien, Apud Gerardum Potuliet, Lugduni Batavorum [ Leyde ], 1745, 12 ff., 325 pp., 23 ff. n. ch., pp. 73-258 et 1 f. n. ch., avec 7 planches hors texte (dont une planche dépliante)Commentaire : Prospero Alpini (1553-1617) published 'the first important work on the history of Egyptian medicine. Alpini became professor of botany at Padua after having spent three years in Egypt' (Garrison & Morton, 6468, for the 1591 edition). At the end we can read 'De medicina indorum' by Jacobus Bontius (1592-1631), first published in 1642. 'Bontius 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 Dutche 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' (G&M, 2263). The 'Medicina Indorum' contains 4 parts : 1 : Notae in Garciam ab orta ; 2 : De diaeta sanorum ; 3 : Meth. medendi Indica ; 4 :Observationes e cadaveribus. Fair copy (binding rubbed with important lack on spine, small wormholes on inner margins, without the folding plate of 'Ponticum thracicum', otherwise a good copy, ms. ex-libris 'Malaure').
