ESCHINARDI, Francesco (1623-1699?). Cursus physiocomathematicus. Rome: J.J. Komarek, 1689. 4° (221 x 161mm). Woodcut illustrations. (First gathering loose, some leaves browned.) Old vellum.

FIRST EDITION with an additional gathering 'Appendix Sexta' loosely inserted at end. This section is paginated 363-370 and appears to be a proof copy as the inserted illustrations are drawn in ink. In this copy the Index begins at p. 363. Eschinardi's textbook of contemporary physical science refers to Galileo in the preface. Carli and Favaro 375; Riccardi I, 431.
