In 8°; 2 pt. in un volume: (44), 248 [i.e. 256] pp. e (4), vii, (1), 98, (2) pp. Alcuni errori di numerazione delle pagine. Bella legatura coeva in piena pelle scura con dorso a 5 nervi. Titolo e ricchissimi fregi in oro ai tasselli del dorso e ai nervi. Ai tagli dei piatti fregi dorati impressi a secco. Tagli in rosso. Prima edizione latina di queste due celebri opere del grande medico scozzese, George Cheyne (1671-1743). Egli fu un abile medico con idee pioneristiche, proto- psicologo, filosofo e matematico, nato a Aberdeenshire, in Scozia. Le edizioni latine di Cheyne sono fra le opere sue più rare. Egli è oggi conosciuto per il suo contributo al vegetarianismo tanto che il suo lavoro è spesso citato dai vegetariani e dagli animalisti, scriveva infatti "To see the convulsions, agonies and tortures of a poor fellow-creature, whom they cannot restore nor recompense, dying to gratify luxury and tickle callous and rank organs, must require a rocky heart, and a great degree of cruelty and ferocity. I cannot find any great difference between feeding on human flesh and feeding on animal flesh, except custom and practice". Grande amico di Isaac Newton fu proprio Cheyne a convincere il grande scienziato, ancora restio se dare alle stampe o meno la sua opera, a pubblicare la sua celebre opera sulle "Quadrature". Fra i suoi clienti (aprì una celebre clinica a Bath nel 1702) ebbe numerosissime personalità di spicco come Alexander Pope, John Gay e Samuel Richardson. In queste celebri opere che ebbero uno strepitoso successo e che in questa prima edizione latina uscirono assieme, offre spiegazioni e suggerimenti per rimanere in buona salute e vivere una vita lunga. Base di una vita sana è una corretta alimentazione. Cheyne soffrì per un certo periodo della sua vita di un grave problema di obesità e di gotta causati da pasti ricchi e non equilibrati. Per ovviare a questo, Cheyne provò a seguire una dieta senza carne basata solo sul consumo del latte e delle verdure. La seconda opera è completamente dedicata all'aspetto psicologico e psichiatrico dell'essere umano. Qui l'autore dà grande rilievo all'aspetto psicologico e all'effetto delle "passioni" sul corpo sia nel bene come l'amore per Dio o per le cose belle, sia nel male con i sentimenti negativi come la rabbia. E' proprio in quest'ottica che alla fine del libro, Cheyne incoraggia all'uso dell'oppio per curare alcune malattie e indica che una dose elevata di questo prodotto non è fatale, contrariamente a ciò che il pubblico pensa. Il suo talento narrativo legato ad un linguaggio volutamente semplice mise l'opera di Cheyne alla portata di tutti rendendolo estremamente popolare. Bellissimo esemplare in bella legatura coeva di questa prima edizione latina di uno dei maggiori classici della storia dell'alimentazione.

ABOUT THIS BOOK: The crux of this absorbing and timely memoir of Cold War espionage is the swap of KGB agent Rudolph Abel for American pilot Frank Powers back to their superpower homes in 1962. Abel had been caught spying in New York in the late 1950s; Powers shot down on a reconnaissance mission over Sverdlovsk in 1960. Yet astonishingly in 1983 it transpired that the man tried and convicted as Rudolph Abel was in fact .Willie Fisher from Newcastle! The narrative traces Willie's story from Newcastle to Moscow to New York tracing the birth of his father Heinrich to German parents in Russia. Despite marriage and a daughter and life in the northeast of England Willie was dedicated to his Communist Party work and an expertise with radio operation and his facility for languages. When Willie's spying activities were exposed in New York cautious to the end he claimed to be Rudolph Abel the name of an old comrade and the Soviet authorities colluded in his deceit. This singular account of the changing face of communism and the evolution of a century in politics is also the story of a virtual dynasty of spies seen at work and at home - like father like son.
