Contemporary full blind-stamped calf handsomely re-backed with matching calf. PROVENANCE: Inscribed at rear "R. Redding e Castro Windsor preb: . . . " Very good. Scarce. Third edition. Barrow was an English mathematician remembered for discovering the fundamental theorem of calculus. He was the first Lucasian Professor of Mathematics at Cambridge. "The elementary portion of Euclid's Elements was part of Barrow's college syllabus but some time before 1652 he went on to read not only Euclidean commentaries by Tacquet Héigone and Oughtred but also more advanced Greek works by Archimedes and possibly Apollonius and Ptolemy. His first published work his epitomized Euclidis Elementorum libri XV probably written by early 1654 is designed as a quadrivium undergraduate text with emphasis on its deductive structure rather than on its geometrical content its sole concessions to contemporary mathematical idiom being its systematic use of Oughtred's symbolism and a list'ex P. Herigono' of numerical constants relating to inscribed polyhedra." :: DSB I p. 474. REFERENCES: Max Steck Bibliographia Euclideana IV 67; Wing 2nd ed. 1994 E3395. J. Redmayne, 1678. unknown books

Title page shaved at foot without loss leaf A4 shaved at foot with loss of catchword scattered spotting. The sole edition of a detailed account of the 'gross abuses' meted out to Quakers in Newgate Gaol Bristol by Isaac Dennis his Wife and Servants and the Cruelty they acted toward these poor Men in the west-house'. Quaker persecution in Bristol as with elsewhere in England continued in the decades after the Restoration with legislation such as the Conventicle Act designed to supress nonconformist worship and reimpose Anglican uniformity. But the election of the high Tory John Knight d. 1718 as Sheriff in September 1681 led to a significant increase in the number of Quakers imprisoned there. The persecution that the Friends received in gaol which are fully evidenced and witnessed in this tract included denying visits the confiscation of worked goods brutal treatment and graphic threats of death and violence.

A fair copy. Newton published this edited and revised edition of the German Bernhardus Varenius' 1622-1650 textbook on the mathematics of geography and navigation for his students at Cambridge in 1672 making this Newton's first publication mere months before the publication of the Opticks. While the English editions were much reprinted in Cambridge and then London this first German edition is scarce outside of continental Europe. Published while Newton was Luasian Professor of Mathematics of Cambridge 1669-1702 Newton's version became the standard text on the subject for over a century. This edition reproduces Newton's Latin text with copies of the plates seen in the earlier Elsevier edition of 1650. While Newton's works were read and received within Germany from their first publication this is the first of his works published in Germany. USTC 2647283. VD17 39:115486D.

Cover in fair book in good condition. freely translated: Rabbi Moses Maimonides' volountary sacrifice: An approach to Abarbanel's introduction and commentary on Leviticus and Maimonides' Tractate on the consecrated calendar and the rational calendar change R. Moses Maimonides Rambam was a 12th century Jewish philosopher and halachic legal scholar. A highly controversial figure both during his lifetime and after his death but generally acknowledged as the preeminent Jewish thinker of the Middle Ages. He was born in Córdoba Spain but fled as a child from the Almohad persecution. He eventually settled in Egypt where he served as a rabbi physician and philosopher. His fourteen-volume Mishneh Torah his only work not in Arabic still carries canonical authority particularly within the Yemenite Jewish community as the codification of Talmudic law. His other work includes a commentary on the Mishnah entitled Kitab al-Siraj Kitab al-Fara'I a book on precepts and the philosophical work Dalalat al-Ha'irin known in Hebrew as the Moreh Nevukhim The Guide to the Perplexed. The major premise is an attempted philosophical/theological reconciliation of the Hebrew Bible and Greek knowledge. This work came to play a central role in all subsequent major controversies over philosophy within the Jewish community during the Middle Ages.
