Hardcover. Zustand: Good. Europe in the sixteenth century experienced a period of unprecedented vitality and innovation in the spheres of science and commerce. The Americas had been discovered and the colonizing nations had an urgent need for mathematical instruments for navigation and surveying. The Elizabethan age saw the establishment of the precision instrument-making trade in London, from 1540, a trade that would become world-famous in the succeeding two centuries.The first of a group of London makers was an immigrant from Flanders, Thomas Gemini, succeeded by the Englishman, Humfrey Cole.It has proved possible to find over 100 surviving mathematical instruments, signed and unsigned, made by a group of London makers during the reign of Queen Elizabeth I. This book describes these instruments in detail, together with the methods by which unsigned instruments are attributed. It tells how the skills of dividing and engraving on brass developed in parallel with the map-making and printing for which the Low Countries were the most important centre. There was already a demand in Elizabethan England for these skills, since accurate measurement was crucial to the professions of navigation, surveying, fortification, and gunnery. England, at war with Spain, eager to exploit the riches of the New World, and, at home, experiencing the re-distribution of monastic property to individual landowners, urgently needed these new professions. unclipped d/j, minimal shelf wear, text clean and unmarked.

Soft cover. Zustand: Very Good. 4to (26.5 cm), 137 pp. Laminated wrappers with flaps (minor shelf wear; common ownership inscription on half-title). Illustrated catalogue of the microscope collection of the Istituto e Museo di Storia della Scienza, Florence, and the inaugural volume in the museum's series of catalogues devoted to individual sections of its scientific-instrument collections. Text in English documents more than one hundred microscopes spanning the development of microscopy from the sixteenth century onward, placing each instrument within its historical and technological context. Particularly notable is the museum's collection of sixteen microscopes by Giovanni Battista Amici, representing virtually the entire range of his production and providing an exceptional record of one of the leading optical instrument makers of the nineteenth century. Equally significant is the group of microscopes associated with Filippo Pacini, for which the museum preserves the original design drawings. Among the highlights described are a Marzoli achromatic microscope of 1811--almost certainly the earliest achromatic microscope manufactured in Italy--and a rare George Adams "Variable" microscope, complete with its original lamp, made in London about 1770. Gerard L'Estrange Turner (1926-2012), one of the foremost historians of scientific instruments and microscopy, was internationally recognised for his pioneering contributions to the study of scientific instrument making and collecting. With a foreword by Paolo Galluzzi, the catalogue combines detailed technical descriptions with historical commentary and extensive photographic documentation. A standard reference work for historians of science, collectors of microscopes, and museum professionals.…
