DE GORTER Joannes
On Insensible Perspiration. First Italian edition.
Publisher: Typis Seminarii apud Jannem Manfrè, Padova, 1748
In 8vo, cm 18.5 x 24.5, pp. (12) + 324 with 3 plates folded out of text, etched in copper, several times folded.
First Italian edition of this important treatise published in 1725. De Gorter resumes the important studies on metabolism carried out previously by Santorio and refines them, verifying them at other latitudes and in other climates.
In this Italian edition, in fact, appear the comments on Santorio’s aphorisms that had not been included in other editions.
A reissue appeared with Manfrè in 1755.
