‎ The late Apr. E. Grendel's copy with his bookplate. With the printed dedications to Lavoisier. A rare and highly important publication, and a revolution in the pharmaceutical literature. The work includes van Mons' plea for an European pharmacopoeia, a project that eventually became realized, first by Joudan with his "Pharmacopee universelle" (ed. I, 1828, ed. II, 1840). Not in Volckringer; Guislain p. 153; Vandewiele p. 255. -- (Small hole in the lower margin of 1 leaf; partly foxed and stained.)‎
