Occasional minor foxing one plate with a small spray of black dots from printing process but a fine copy internally the text clean and fresh and the plates bright with pleasing colors.<br/> <br/> This work promotes the efficacy of homeopathic remedies through the use of detailed botanical illustrations and thorough descriptions of 66 plants--from benign specimens such as chamomile and coffee to hazardous species such as poison ivy and ergot. The descriptions of each plant include their botanical characteristics history means of identification geographical distribution physiological effects in humans and animals parts of the plant used and methods of preparation and their general use in homeopathy as well as numerous case studies and clinical observations that supposedly prove the effectiveness of homeopathic remedies in the treatment of various physical and mental diseases. Edward Hamilton 1815-1903 was a member of the British Homeopathic Society and a Physician to the London Homeopathic Hospital founded in 1849. In addition to providing a useful reference for practitioners of homeopathy Hamilton attempts in the present work to elevate and legitimize the practice in the eyes of the public and the larger medical community. The origins of homeopathy go back to the end of the 18th century but the approach became especially popular in the 19th century as an alternative to conventional Western medicine--often referred to by homeopaths as "allopathy"--whose methods at the time could be ineffectual or even dangerous to the health of the patient for example bloodletting and purging. Practitioners of homeopathy operate under the belief that "like cures like." In the words of the National Library of Medicine this means that "Practitioners select a drug that would if given to a healthy volunteer cause the presenting symptoms of the patient. For example the homoeopathic remedy Allium cepa is derived from the common onion. Contact with raw onions typically causes lacrimation stinging and irritation around the eyes and nose and clear nasal discharge. Allium cepa might be prescribed to patients with hay fever especially if both nose and eyes are affected." Crucially homeopathic remedies are harmless to the patient because they are diluted many times over--to the point that the active ingredient is an infinitesimal part of the solution. For example when taken this way the fatal Atropa Belladonna commonly known as Deadly Nightshade which "produces phenomena of inflammation in the peripheral tissues" is especially successful at treating ailments related to inflammation. The author notes that it was even administered as a prophylaxis against scarlet fever dubious studies of which are discussed here at length. Other surprising recommendations in the book include Henbane for nymphomania Bitter Cucumber for dysentery and Cannabis for a range of maladies that include tetanus acne and gonorrhea. Our copy is in remarkably good condition for a work that was intended to be referred to again and again with the hand-colored plates being unusually bright and especially well preserved. There are very few early homeopathic books with significant illustrations and none approaching the level of detail and artistry seen in the present work. H. Baillière unknown

L'exposition qui s'oeuvre a la du lycee Notre Dame de Sion a partir du 8 mars est une selection de cartes postales dont la collection s'etend de 1885 a 1930. elle regroupe le travail de divers photographes qui ont parcouru l'Afrique du Nord colonisee.

Ces cliches nous offrent neanmoins la possibilite de reflechir sur les representations coloniales du siecle dernier, representations qui perdurent encore dans les stereotypes publicitaires ou sont la source de certains prejuges toujours actuels.

BIGEL Gerard Joseph Marie. Esame teoretico pratico sulla Omiopatia del Dottor Bigel. Traduzione dal francese fatta sull'edizione di Varsavia da Nicolò Vincenzo Laraja. Napoli, dalla Tipografia Tramater, 1846. In 8vo; pp.XVIII, 380. Firma autografa del traduttore. Fior. Mezza pelle coeva, titolo e fregi in oro al dorso. Dall'introduzione: "Fra i tanti assennati, che l'han fatto le migliori accoglienze, ed i maggiori ossequi va annoverato il rinomato Dott. Bigel di nazione francese. Costui è quegli che con questa sua opera, e con altre di egual merito ha saputo così ben esporre la nuova dottrina medica di Hahnemann (fondatore della Omiopatia), illustrarla con fatti incontrastabili, con saggi ragionamenti dimostrare la ragionevolezza dei suoi principi fondamentali, e della pratica al letto dell'infermo, che ne fa toccare con mani la verità, la chiarezza, l'utilità, la facilità, non risparmiando studi, e sperimenti. Può chiamarsi l'apologista per eccellenza dell'omiopatia, imparziale, giusto, eloquente più che ogni altro. Il traduttore colla versione ha inteso di secondare gli umani disegni di Hahnemann, le benefiche mire di Bigel, lo zelo pietoso della lunga classe dei proseliti omiopatici, affinchè non rimanga mezzo, e via, a diffondere in tutti, e da per tutto il salutare metodo curativo, l'Anemanniano favore". Il dottor Gerard Joseph Marie Bigel (1764-1832) nato in Francia, studiò presso l'École de Médecine di Strasburgo, venne a conoscenza e adottò il nuovo metodo curativo durante un viaggio in Germania al seguito del Granduca Costantino di Russia. Successivamente praticò l'omeopatia a San Pietroburgo e a Varsavia dove nel 1827 pubblicò per la prima volta un'opera in tre volumi in francese sulle teorie e i metodi del dottor Hahnemann.
