1753L4ADNKY1AWHWLeiden: Pieter van der Eyk 1753. Modern orange paper wrappers. 8vo. Rare first edition of a collection of pharmacological recipes in Dutch that had no official authorization published to meet the needs of apprentices and pharmacists with little or no knowledge of Latin the language of the pharmacompoeia which were officially authorized by governments or medical or pharmacological associations and to avoid misuse quackery and the production and selling of quack remedies. The compilers aim nevertheless to present reliable pharmacological recipes based on the best available sources such as the works of Herman Boerhave 1668-1738 and Etienne Fr. Geoffroy 1672-1731. While some phamacopoeia were translated into Dutch and other vernacular languages Van der Eyk apparently thought less educated readers also needed a different approach to make the information clear. In 1766 he published a second augmented edition.Corners slightly bumped slightly soiled and water-stained throughout not affecting the text.
