(HELVETIUS, Claude-Adrien) De l'Esprit.
Chez Durand Paris 1758 Contemp. mottled calf, spine elaborately gilt with raised bands and a leather label, marbled endpapers First edition, second issue. (4), xxii, 643, (1) pp. Large engraved ornament on title, woodcut head and tailpieces. 4to. This celebrated philosophical treatise attracted immediate attention and aroused formidable opposition. The Sorbonne condemned the book, the priests persuaded the court that it was full of the most dangerous doctrines, and the author, terrified at the storm he had raised, wrote three separate retractions. Yet in spite of his protestations of orthodoxy, the book was publicly burned by the hangman. In brief, Helvetius asserted (1) that all man's faculties may be reduced to physical sensation, even memory, comparison, judgement; (2) that self-interest, founded on the love of pleasure and the fear of pain is the sole spring of judgement; (3) that all intellects are equal and that their apparent inequalities are due to the unequal desire for instruction, and this desire springs from the passions, of which all men are commonly well- organized are susceptible to the same degree. The keynote of Helvetius's thought, that public ethics has a utilitarian basis, had great influence on Bentham and Beccaria, among others. But, it was athe virulence of the attacks on the book, as much as its intrinsic merit that caused it to be widely-read and translated into almost all the languages of Europe.

MAURICEAU, A. M. The Married Woman's Private Medical Companion, Embracing the Treatment ofMenstruation...Pregnancy, and How it May be Determined...Discovery toPrevent Pregnancy...
(Joseph Trow) New York 1848 Orig. cloth 238 pp. 12mo. One of the earliest and most influential American books written for the layman dealing with and promoting contraception. It went through a number of editions throughout the 1850's. In a footnote on p. 144, Mauriceau advertises condoms at $ 5 a dozen and points out their usefulness for preventing disease transmission as well as avoiding pregnancy. The text also covers a wide variety of gynecological subjects, such as miscarriage, abortion, menstrual difficulties, sterility, and childbirth. It is quite remarkable that Mauriceau also suggests, on p. 200, that there should be a cleansing of the hands and of the woman's body before manually extracting the placenta, "as the omission of it may give rise to peurperal fever", and that he is not aware that "others have practiced this method." This is a remarkably advanced view at a time when Semmelweis and others were being ridiculed for expounding similar views. Himes, pp. 262-63. Cordasco 40-0883.

TIEDEMANN, Friedrich Das Hirn des Negers mit dem des Europäers und Orang-Outangs Verglichen.
Karl Winter Heidelberg 1837 Contemp. paste-paper boards, parchment spine (2 advts.), (vi), (1), (1 blank), 84 pp., with six lithograph plates, and numerous tables, most full-page, a couple multi-page, in the text. Folio. This landmark work first appeared in English in the Philosophical Transactions of the Royal Society in the preceding year. Although Friedrich Tiedemann (1781-1861) is best remembered for his classical work with Leopold Gmelin on the digestive system (See Garrison-Morton 988), as well as his important contribution to the understanding of trichinosis (See Garrison-Morton 5336.4), he also did important work in comparative neuroanatomy. "In 1836 he published, in English, what may be considered one of the earliest basic works of physical anthropology, On the Brain of the Negro Compared With That of the European and the Orang-Outang. In this surprisingly modern study, Tiedemann showed that, in contrast to the large difference between the forebrains of apes and men, no substantial differences could be found between the brains of the races of men; although the majority of Negro skulls and cranial cavities that he studied were smaller than those of European specimens, they had, by his measurement, contained brains as large and as heavy. He further stated his finding that there was no area of intellectual activity in which Negroes could not perform as well as European whites, and concluded that there was no natural formation or disposition of the brain in Negroes that would substantiate the notion of their predestined subservient state.

DAVY, Humphry On the Safety Lamp for Coal Miners.
for R. Hunter London 1818 Early 3/4 calf, red edges First edition viii, 148 pp. complete with the engraved folding frontispiece. Sm. 8vo. "Science historian L. Pearce Williams has said that Dav's invention of the safety lamp for miners was a result of one of the most beautiful series of experiments in history. At the height of his fame in the summer of 1815, 'Davy's help was sought by a committee that had been formed to find some way of preventing disastrous explosions of mixtures of methane and air in coal mines...When he attempted to explode a mixture of methane and air in a glass tube a quarter of an inch in diameter, he discovered that the flame passed slowly down the tube; and that when the diameter was reduced to a seventh of an inch, the mixture would not burn at all. Davy reasoned that the small-bore tubes cooled the gases to a temperature below the ignition temperature of the exploding mixture. He found that if a lantern flame was enclosed within a fine wire mesh, the escaping gases would be similarly cooled; and thus the Davy lamp was born. It was one of the earliest and most dramatic illustrations...of the aid that science could offer to the rapidly developing industries of England.'"---Hoover 255. -- Hoover 255. Fullmer 1818:6.

While at Harvard he had studied Esperanto; and later he created his own artificial language, Ido." --DSB, XV, Supplement I, p. 465.
