15943076<p>Wittenberg: Georg Muller 1594. Rare first edition of one of the earliest works on the subject of scurvy by the well-known anatomist undertaken to survey the incidence of the disease in the ducal territories around Wittenberg and consequently qualifying as an example of public health medicine. According to O’Malley Alberti was able to positively demonstrate the disease’s prevalence in the territory surveyed and astutely recommend citrus fruit as part of a preventative diet a benevolent property later recognized by James Lind in his Treatise on the Scurvy Edinburg 1753. “The book was known by James Lind and referred to by him in his celebrated treatise” O’Malley p. 98. Salomon Alberti 1540-1600 is best known for producing the first illustrations of the venous valves and for producing the first extensive printed account devoted solely to their function in his Tres Orationes Nuremberg 1585. The correct understanding of the venous valves was essential to Harvey’s concept of a systemic circulation of the blood. The work went through at least two 17th-century editions 1624; 1674 though the editio princeps appears to be the only one containing Alberti’s public disputation of 1591 with Ernestus Hettenbach which constitutes the first public announcement of his results.

VERY RARE & EARLY ACCOUNT ON PERSPIRATION CRYING & BLOOD. A classical account on perspiration crying and blood all fluids. O'Malley writes for the DSB "such then curious but rational problems as why boys ought not to be forbidden to cry why sobbing usually accompanies weeping" -- apparently referring to this work. Thorndike who notes the author's work on the classical writers Galen and Rasis notes further that he was not a physician who ascribed to the occult sciences: "he also discussed such questions as why boys should not be forbidden to cry why sobbing generally goes with tears. . ." p. 230. The Bayerische Staatsbibliothek copy has an added 2 leaves marked as signature "-2" which is a preface by Paulo Alberto Paulus Albertus not available in this copy but supplied in facs.

Alberti born in 1540 Naumburg Germany a year later his father died. He and his mother relocated to Nuremberg 1541. Remarkably the city paid for Alberti's education including his doctoral studies at the University of Wittenberg 1574 rising to become Professor of Philosophy and Physics in Wittenberg then Professor of Medicine and in 1582 becoming physician to Duke Friedrich Wilhelm of Saxony. He last residence was in Dresden where he passed away. He wrote tracts on the pancreas 1578 on the lacrimal apparatus De Lacrimis 1581.
