"Gibson's Surveying was a dominant American text for a half century, and the standard against which others were compared. It appeared on the American scene when there was a need for what it offered, particularly in regard to calculating land areas from metes and bounds surveys. Despite several additions and changes by American editors, it never included descriptions or instructions on newer instruments such as the vernier compass, solar compass, or surveyors transit. Its heyday came and went, and it nobly served the needs of many pioneer American surveyors. Today it continues to serve professional surveyors by providing insight into alternative measuring methods used in early surveys." **PRICE JUST REDUCED! SCIENCE BOX 1

Fitte annotazioni manoscritte con grafia coeva nella parte superiore del contropiatto anteriore. Brossura muta coeva. "Questo libretto, come l'autore confessa, e' in gran parte fabbricato sulla teoria del sig. Fabbroni nel suo scritto intorno alle stime dei terreni. Comunque il mezzo piu' eccellente per misurare le superficie sia il goniometro munito di micrometro, il sig. Rensi per la pratica universale dei periti consiglia la Tavola pretoriana. Non approva pero' l'uso dell'ago magnetico per orientarla, ma invece vorrebbe s'adoperasse il cosi' detto punto sovrapposto... Misurata l'estensione orizzontale, conviene esaminare la profondita' del terreno adoperando percio' la trivella gallica, e consiglia il nostro autore di limitarsi in questa indagine al punto dal quale per la sua profondita' piu' non tornasse conto l'estraerla, a meno di una spesa esorbitante non ordinaria" (Biblioteca italiana ossia giornale di letteratura, scienze ed arti, p. 401 e ss.).
