Inhaltsangabe

Excerpt from Notes on Some Books of Technical Receipts, or So-Called "Secrets"

I. There are collections of secrets of nature, or treatises on natural history, general science, and cosmogony. Of this set, Pliny's history seems to have been the model.

II. There are treatises on what was called natural magic (as distinguished from black magic or necromancy) - that is, the pro duction of secret effects in Optics, acoustics, magnetism, &c., &c., by natural causes. This is the form which natural philosophy originally took.
