Description: [1], [1 blank], 111, [112-329], [1 blank]; [2 blank], [68]; [2 blank], [41], [5 blank] pp.A complete manuscript course in "general and pharmacological experimental chemistry", probably intended for pharmacologists, the main text comprising 329 pages with a 68-page additional work or appendix concerning chemical aspects of the main components of plants and the most important products that can be extracted from them, followed by a 41-page series of questions and answers. No author's name appears in the manuscript. The titles might seem to suggest a connection with Johann Bartholomäus Trommsdorff, Leerboek der artsenymengkundige proefondervindelijke scheikunde, (second edition Amsterdam, 1827-1831), first published in German, and in Dutch translation in 1815; and Thomas Graham, Scheikunde der bewerktuigde ligchamen (Amsterdam, 1844), a Dutch translation of a German adaptation; but we have found no direct connection with the texts of either book.With occasional very slight browning and a couple small stains, but still in very good condition. The head of the backstrip has been repaired, the hinges are worn and the marbled paper shows a few scuff marks, but the binding is still good.
