Original paper wrappers edges uncut; contents lightly browned edges slightly curled otherwise good. Rare first edition of Jungs German Cameralistic treatise on agricultural production published in 1783. Dr. Jung was teacher and physician who published widely on topics of forestry agriculture and farm manufacturing. This treatise is principally engrossed with the numbering and categorizing of the different systems of agricultural production. In this Lehrbuch Jung especially supports the full study of botany and zoology as a foundation for economic progress in agriculture. Of veterinary interest there are several entries on the physiology of animals starting on page 206. In this work Jung famously recommends the German system of mercantilism Cameralism to govern the accounting of agriculture endeavors he suggests using a double-entry system. Jung was a proponent of the Cameralistic system that had its practical dimensions and could be seen as the 18th-century equivalent of modern day public finance and policy. Though Jung is less strong on the writing on economic administration his aims were to create a textbook reference to the related parts and subsections of agricultural production it is clear Jung had a firm technical foundation in natural scientific knowledge probably from his Lautern school days.
