Full title: "The Principles of Light and Color: Including Among Other Things the Harmonic Laws of the Universe the Etherio-Atomic Philosophy of Force Chromo Chemistry Chromo Therapeutics and the General Philosophy of the Fine Forces Together with Numerous Discoveries and Practical Applications. Illustrated by More Than Two Hundred Engravings and Four Colored Plates." From the Bioregulatory Medical Institute BRMI website: "Edwin Dwight Babbitt was an American physician and early pioneer in the science of chromotherapy color/light therapy. Modern photobiology has its roots in chromotherapy and Dr. Babbitt was instrumental in bringing light and color into the scientific verifiable realm. In 1883. he also organized the New York College of Magnetics later named the College of Fine Forces which offered courses in chromotherapy magnetic therapy and psycho-emotional therapy. Dr. Babbitt developed his theories of color diagnosis and therapy and the electromagnetic spectrum and magnetism. This area of study chromotherapy preoccupied him for the remainder of his life. In 1869 he began treating psycho-emotional disorders in Boston and New York using chromotherapy and magnetic therapy. After several years of experimentation with light color and magnetism in the area of health care he began publishing articles of his research. In 1876 Dr. Babbitt published his classic book on chromotherapy The Principles of Light and Color. He had two purposes for publishing his book. The first was to convince his fellow medical colleagues that he had discovered a valuable therapeutic system. The second was to present to the world a philosophy of light and color that he believed formed and affected fundamental principles of life. The Principles of Light and Color included Dr. Babbitts research into the harmonic laws of the universe the etherio-atomic philosophy of force chromo chemistry chromo therapeutics and the general philosophy of the fine forces magnetism together with numerous discoveries and practical applications. It is illustrated by more than two hundred engravings with four colored plates. Dr. Babbitt studied historical records of color therapy he performed countless experiments on the specific healing effects of color light and magnetism on human biology. Dr. Babbitt understood the antagonistic effect of red and blue light using red light to stimulate sympathetic activity and blue light to stimulate parasympathetic activity.". Second Edition Updated.

"Edizione originale" di questo studio sugli effetti benefici dell’equitazione per la salute umana. “Giuseppe Benvenuti (1723-1810) per circa 30 anni esercitò la professione di medico nei celebri Bagni di Lucca. In queste ‘riflessioni’ attinge largamente agli scritti di Sydenham, Baglivi, Boerhaave, ecc., dissertando degli effetti dell’equitazione sulla circolazione sanguigna, dell’elasticità delle fibre muscolari e dei vasi arteriosi e linfatici. L’equitazione è raccomandata per la sua azione di stimolo sull’attività degli ‘spiriti animali’, sulla funzione epatica, la digestione, la circolazione linfatica e - quasi panacea universale - come rimedio contro l’arteriosclerosi, l’idropisia, l’apoplessia, l’isteria e varie altre malattie. Lo scritto si conclude con una serie di consigli sulla pratica di questo sport e con varie norme di igiene”. Così Diz. Biografico Italiani, VIII, p. 675.
