Redi, Francesco. 1664. Osservazioni intorno alle Vipere, da lu scritte in una lettera Lorenzo Magalotti. All"Insegna della Stella Firenze, 92 p. Leatherbound. waterstain on bottom of half title and titlepage. A classic in the study of snakes and snake venom. "The means by which the bite of a viper caused death had been of great interest since antiquity and the search for an antidote had involved much credulity and even knavery. It was Redi, using controlled experiments traceable to the methodology of Galileo, who first succeeded in separating fact from fiction. He showed that viper venom was the yellowish fluid that flowed from the teeth, that the venom had to be injected beneath the skin to cause death (it had no effect when introduced into the stomach with food), and that the venom was produced in sacs in the viper's head. Through similar experiments and observations he also dispelled many myths, although his experiments on animals were for a long time regarded as cruel....His views were severely challenged by Moyse Charas, a Parisian apothecary, in a book published in 1669, and also by others who claimed that the viper's venom was harmless and that the true poison were the spirits driven into the victim by the mind of an enraged viper! As a result, Redi was led to conduct additional research which, together with logical refutations of criticisms of his work he published as responses in 1670, 1685, and 1686, but he was unable to fully satisfy his critics..." - Adler 1989. . $1450.00
