Engraved vignette on title. Title printed in red & black. 2 p.l., 112 pp. 4to, attractive antique panelled calf (rather foxed & with some browning due to the quality of the paper), spine gilt, red morocco lettering piece on spine. Halle: Litteris et Impensis Orphanotrophei, 1723. First edition of a rare book. Juncker (1679-1759), professor of medicine at the University of Halle, was closely associated with two of the outstanding chemical and medical theorists of the early 18th century, George Ernst Stahl and Friedrich Hoffman, both of whom also taught at Halle. One of Stahl’s most gifted and prominent disciples, Juncker “published numerous dissertations and books that expounded and developed Stahlian ideas in chemistry and medicine.”–D.S.B., VII, p. 188. The present book contains a series of pharmaceutical preparations in tabular form. This was a very successful book which went through at least five editions during a fifty year period. Good copy. ❧ Ferguson, I, p. 443. No copy of the first edition in the Neville collection.
