[The book is the translation of the diaries of Hipolito Ruiz, early botanical explorer of South America, who spent 11 years exploring the towns, villages, fields, forests, and mountains of Peru and Chile from 1777 to 1788. Newly translated by Richard Evans Schultes, the Journals offer valuable information for modern-day readers. Descriptions of about 2000 plants, fully indexed in the book, make the Journals an extensive botanical resource, while observations of landscape, weather, and native cultures create a unique historical picture for students of geography, geology, anthropology, and colonial history. As a historical find, the Journals are a remarkable document. Recounting the first of a series of Spanish expeditions to the New World, the story they tell is one of great sacrifice and hardship in the name of science. Bad weather, fatigue, and all the dangers of travel in the wilds were endured, as well as disasters including the death of artist Jose Brunete and the loss of a manuscript to fire. In the scientific realm, Ruiz's studies may be considered ground-laying work in the discipline of ethnobotany. By relating the uses of plants by natives, such as the extraction of quinine for the treatment of malaria, to his description of the plant in its native environment, Ruiz employed methods central to modern science.].

HARDBACK Binding in Dust wrappers. small peeling on the top of the wrapped cover, other than that, the Book in very good condition. These treatises by the Greek mathematician Autolykos of Pitane were written around 320 B.C.They form the oldest material on Greek mathematical astronomy that has survived in a well preserved form.This book contains the complete text in Greek and in English. The Greek text is based on the critical edition of Joseph Mogenet. The English translation is published here for the first time. The Books of Autolykos deal with the simple geometry of points and large circles on a sphere, applying the axiomatic method systematically for the first time. This is the method by which we have all learnt our geometry and which has been the basis of western mathematical thinking for the subsequent twenty-three centuries. The treatment is thought to have been typical of the work of the students of Eudoxos, and a prelude to the books of Euclid. These tracts give a clear insight into the status of Greek mathematical astronomy just before the initiation of the famous School of Alexandria. #20630.
