Catalogus Librorum Novorum Mathem: in Gallijs 1693, c1693

 Item
Identifier: Coll-33/Quarto A [29]

Scope and Contents

List of partial titles in applied mathematics, mostly, in a hand other than David Gregory's-and one of them in Greek, not a language in which he was comfortable. 1693 was the year he made his last trip to the continent, visiting Flanders as new Savilian Professor. These varied titles consider things like the statics of exploding gunpowder and draining water, dioptrics, micromeasurement, catapults, and astrophysics. This bibliography may be part of a larger one, judging by "par le meme" in the first few entries.
