Product Description
The 18th century was a wealth of knowledge, exploration and rapidly growing technology and expanding record-keeping made possible by advances in the printing press. In its determination to preserve the century of revolution, Gale initiated a revolution of its own: digitization of epic proportions to preserve these invaluable works in the largest archive of its kind. Now for the first time these high-quality digital copies of original 18th century manuscripts are available in print, making them highly accessible to libraries, undergraduate students, and independent scholars.
Medical theory and practice of the 1700s developed rapidly, as is evidenced by the extensive collection, which includes descriptions of diseases, their conditions, and treatments. Books on science and technology, agriculture, military technology, natural philosophy, even cookbooks, are all contained here.

What Aguilonius has mentioned of the errors we fall into in relation to the apparent magnitude of objects being caufed by a wrong judgment of their diftance, Alhazen has particularly infifted on, when amongft the feveral caufes of errors in vi- fion, he fets down one to be great diftance, and (hews, that from thence will arite an error in our judging, both of the interval between diftant bodies, and allb of their magnitude -f-.46. It is this error in our judgment of diftance, which caufes parallel lines to feem converging, and the like deceptions, which in the optical treatife afcribed to Euclide, and by our author are referred r. o the mere decreafe of the angle. Trees are fome- times planted fo as to appear in one point of view, as parallel. But in thefe the angles fubtending their diftances continually diminifh, as thefe diftances are farther removed from the fight, though not fo much, as when the trees are really parallel. If the angle only determined it, trees, which extended in two lines from the point of view, muft be feen as parallel.47. But now to furnup the refult of this difqui- fition concerning the apparent magnitude of objefts; as we have fhewn the concurrent opinion of all the beft writers to be, that it is connected with our ideas of their diftance; fo this gentleman has not only admitted as much in many objects viewed by the naked eye; but alfo in terreftrial objects feen through. telefcopes , that the object does not ftrike the beholder with the appearance of its magnitude being increafed as much as the angle, under which it is feen, becaufe it is thought nearer. And this is c... ... Read more
