First edition (another was published in the same year in Paris) of this treatise on the properties of milk, and its use (and sometimes abuse) in medicine, by the Sicilian physician Giovanni Michele Gallo (1729 - 1786). The work is divided into two sections. The first half of the first volume is principally physiological, and describes the structure of the breast, and the way in which milk is secreted. This is followed by a description of the powers of milk, its various properties, and the general methods for its use in the treatment of disease (both acute and chronic) and the maintenance of health, both in infants and in adults. Gallo quotes extensively in his account, from authors both ancients (Pliny, Tacitus, Sallust) and modern (Boerhaave and Hoffman, in particular). The second volume consists of forty accounts, illustrated with case histories, of particular illnesses, and the ways in which milk and milk products can be used in their treatment and cure. Among other things, Gallo discusses convulsions, epileptic fits, rheumatism, inflammation of kidneys and stomach ulcers; as with the first part of the work, Gallo freely cites authorities such as Galen.
