PITTON DE TOURNEFORT, Joseph.

Histoire des plantes qui naissent aux environs de Paris, avec leur usage dans la médecine.

Paris : Imprimerie royale, 1698. In-12, (56)-543-(19) pages. Basane de l'époque, dos à nerfs orné. Reliure usagée et frottée, pièce de titre manquante. Edition originale. Jussieu la rééditera en 1725. "Tournefort"s conception of plant genus contains a fundamental new contribution that was elaborated in the work of Linnaeus, Bernard de Jussieu, and Adanson. [His] revolution was aided by his exceptionally broad botanical experience, the fame he acquired following his trip to the Levant, and his personality. His deep concern for clarity, simplicity, and rigor in his writings was the source of his attractive style and convincing argumentation" (DSB).
