BOSCOVICH, Ruggiero Giuseppe (1711-87). De viribus vivis dissertatio. Rome: typis Komarek, 1745.
4° (234 x 160mm). Large woodcut device on title, folding plate at end, woodcut head-pieces and initials. (Some tiny wormholes.) Later paperboards, red marbled edges.
FIRST EDITON of Boscovich’s important discours on the subject of the living force with his first statement of universal force law. ‘He there put forward the view that the speed of a movement is to be computed from the action mentanea of the force that generates it’ (DSB). Boscovich stands between the natural philosophy of Isaac Newton and Leibniz at one extreme and Faraday in the field theory at the other. Riccardi I 174.
