Addressed to all the universities of Europe, this revised statement of the duchess’s natural philosophy sets out a world made of self-moving matter. Across thirteen parts she applies her theory of corporeal motions to life and knowledge, the senses, the passions, and a long run of diseases and their cures, such as fevers and colics.

A bold work by one of the first women to publish natural philosophy in English. Download the free EPUB.
