Seconde édition de cet ouvrage très estimé pour son exactitude et sa grande liberté de jugement. “Ceux qui veulent étudier la matière à fond trouveront abondamment de quoi se satisfaire dans l'excellent ouvrage [de] M. Brucker” recommande l’Encyclopédie à l’article Philosophie. Cette seconde édition fut augmentée d’un volume d’appendice vendu séparément (VI) qui manque ici, comme souvent. Bon état d’occasion Livres anciens
