It has almost no rules" -- Aulus Cornelius Celsus. This would make a wonderful gift for any doctor - or doctor to be. W143

Paris, Asselin 1866. Plaquette in-8 brochée de 15 pages.
478 p. 8vo. 230 mm. Cloth backed marbled boards. On the front paste down is a Nazi registration stamp: 'Dereinnahmt im bestandbuch uber Bucher' dated 1942, and signed by Rosenberg as karteifuehrer. Carl Wilhelm Wolfgang Ostwald (1883-1943) was a German chemist and biologist famous for his research on colloids. He was born in Riga, the son of the 1909 winner of the Nobel Prize in Chemistry, Wilhelm Ostwald. 'In the early 20th century, before enzymology was well understood, colloids were thought to be the key to the operation of enzymes; i.e., the addition of small quantities of an enzyme to a quantity of water would, in some fashion yet to be specified, subtly alter the properties of the water so that it would break down the enzyme's specific substrate.' It was proposed that life itself was explainable in terms of the aggregate properties of all the colloidal substances that make up an organism. As more detailed knowledge of biology and biochemistry developed, the colloidal theory was replaced by the macromolecular theory.' The Nazi registration impratur (essentially a license to print or publish) makes this example all the more interesting. DENTISTRY 1

Traduit de l'Anglois sur la seconde Edition donnée avec des Remarques, par le Docteur H. Pemberton, Professeur en Médecine au Collège de Gresham, Augmentée de plusieurs Notes & Observations, & d'un nombre de Procédés intéressans, avec les Vertus & les Doses des Médicamens, 2 vol. in-4 reliure de l'époque pleine basane marbrée, pleine basane marbrée, dos à 5 nerfs orné, Chez P. Fr. Didot Jeune, Paris, 1771, 1 f., XVI-CLII-415 pp. ; 2 ff. [2 feuillets paginés CXXIX et CXXX ] ; 2 ff., 781 pp. et 2 ff. n. ch. Il s'agit de la traduction française de la version anglaise de l'ouvrage, publiée en 1746 par Pemberton sous le titre : "The Dispensatory of the Royal college of physicians". L'ouvrage est remarquable pour sa longue "Exposition du Comité" dans laquelle l'avancement des connaissances médicales et pharmacologiques est présenté de manière détaillée, pittoresque et souvent impressionnante ! La traduction française du premier volume fut publiée en 1761, mais le second volume dut attendre l'année 1771 (Didot, qui avait repris l'édition, en profita pour diffuser les premiers volumes restants, enrichis d'un nouveau feuillet de titre daté de 1771). Etat très satisfaisant (reliures un peu frottées, pièces de titres et coupes frottés, qq. rouss., qq. rares petits travaux de vers en marge, plusieurs ex-libris ms. : Victor Laverde, Pierre Robert Delorme, De Periers, on note un peu de jeu dans la reliure des cahiers du second tome, néanmoins parfaitement solide, belle fraîcheur intérieure par ailleurs) pour cet exemplaire à bonnes marges. Pour tout connaître de "l'Esprit de soufre par la cloche", de "l'Esprit de nitre dulcifié", de la "Pierre Médicamenteuse" ou de "l'Aethiops médical"... Français
