1777I14F46A1C75MVienna: Johann Thomas Edlen von Trattner 1777. Mottled calf gold-tooled spine brown morocco spine label marbled endpapers red edges. 8vo. Medical ordinances and a list of the new taxes on nearly 2000 named medicinal components. As the Habsburgs in the 1770s attempted to strengthen their control over the professional standards and business activity of pharmacists and medical personnel in their realms the authorities imposed new taxes on behalf of Empress Maria Theresa covering all components of medicaments described and prescribed in the Pharmacopoea Austriaco-Provinciali the official book of pharmacological recipes for the entire Habsburg empire with editions published almost every year from 1776 to ca. 1822. The ordinance on the subject was promulgated on 25 November 1775 and took affect on 1 January 1776 so the 1776 edition was clearly the first but the 1790 edition calls itself the second. It is therefore not certain whether the present copy is the true second edition or a reissue of the first. The ordinance pp. 3-8 of the preliminaries is signed by Christian August Graf von Seilern Statthalter and Thomas Ignaz Freiherr von Pöct Kanzler and contains seven points including sanctions and criminal procedures in case of fraud. Trattner was printer and bookseller to the Imperial Court.Foot of spine damaged otherwise in good condition.l Cf. Blake p. 24 1776 ed. Johann Thomas Edlen von Trattner, unknown

1800I14DVA32F2X0Leiden: Abraham and Jan Honkoop 1800. Contemporary mottled boards. 12mo. Rare second edition of "the first general as distinguished from hospital 'pharmacopoeia' compiled by an American" Cowen first published at Paris in 1798. The first part of the book is a classification of diseases and is taken word for word from the influential 1769 nosology by the Scottish physician William Cullen. The second part is a pharmacopoeia divided into materia medica and composite medicines. The introduction notes that it is based on the author's notes made at the University of Edinburgh the London pharmacopoeia and Joseph Townsend's The physicians' vade mecum 1794 p. x. Between the two parts can be found a list translating the Latin names of the chemical preparations "which not all readers will view as sufficiently legitimate" p. 77 into the modern English and French nomenclature.William Tazewell d. 1832 was an American physician who had studied in Edinburgh and in 1797-1800 was secretary to Elbridge Gerry in Paris. After returning to the United States Tazewell set up a medical practice in Williamsburg and later moved to Virginia. In 1803 he presented copies of his Vade-mecum to George Washington and Thomas Jefferson the latter writing that "it has really brought the whole science of diseases & remedies within the shortest compass possible and not meddling with the details of the science himself it presents exactly such a general view of every part of it as Jefferson often wishes to take" Cowen.With a small price in pen on the first flyleaf.
