J. Wren, London, 1752. Very good. Third Edition 6 1/2 x 3 3/4 inches, full calf, Two volumes with 24 engraved plates and one engraved frontispiece in volume one. 18th century engraved bookplate of James Lord Forbes in both volumes. A rather late publication disclaiming the major achievements of science and philosophy including the work of Decartes and Newton in favor of the teachings of Moses and other bibical figures.
