First Edition
Other Binding. Condition: USED_VERYGOOD. 1st edition. VG (as new, except for abrasion to back cover label). Digital facsimile (in electronic PDF format on CD-ROM disc; this is not a printed book) of the first edition of this exceptionally rare (fewer than 10 copies known) early work by Galileo Galilei, from a copy in the Lessing J. Rosenwald Collection at the Library of Congress. Galileo's "geometrical and military compass" (or sector) was a mathematical device -- a sort of calculating ruler based on the principle of proportional magnitudes -- that brought speed and accuracy to computations about armaments and their trajectories. Its employment, however, extended well beyond the battlefield. It was widely used for rapid and complex calculations of proportion, volume, and square or cube roots, well before the advent of logarithmic tables -- and eventually the slide-rule and computer. Galileo's little book, privately printed in an edition of a mere sixty copies, is now extremely rare. This Octavo Edition contains detailed digital images (may be magnified at up to 800% of original size) of every page of the original edition (photographed as if the actual book were open before the viewer) as well as Stillman Drake's authoritative English translation (fully searchable) and a new introduction by science historian Filippo Camerota. This Octavo Edition is in Adobe PDF format on CD-ROM and is compatible with Windows and Macintosh systems. Not Signed.
