Edition Originale de cet ouvrage du célèbre minéralogiste et scientifique G. Agricola (1490-1555).
"It is a valuable book of reference on the history of ancient measures (...). The book is also valuable to the student of Roman and Greek numerals, and of the various symbols of measures. Such work explains the origin of certain systems of measures employed before the metric system was developed, and of such symbols as are still used by apothecaries" (Smith).
