Author: WAINEWRIGHT, Jer. [Jeremiah].
Title: A Mechanical Account of the Non-Naturals: Being a brief explication of the changes made in humane bodies, by Air, Diet, &c. Together with an enquiry into the nature and use of baths ... the fifth edition, revis'd. To which is added, An Anatomical Treatise of the Liver, with the diseases incident to it.
Description: London, for John Clarke 1737. Octavo contemporary calf (rebacked and corners repaired); 224;64pp. A little browning but quite a good copy. The Treatise of the Liver is separately paginated. ¶ First published in 1707; this seems to be the last edition. The Treatise of the Liver was published in 1722 and the two works appear together only in this edition. This second part is a different setting to the first and starts at B1 (B1-E8). I would have confidently claimed this to be the original 1722 sheets except that it doesn't collate with that printing.
