Conciliator differentiarum philosophorum et medicorum. Add: De venenis.

Mantua: Johannes Vurster and Thomas Septemcastrensis, for Ludovicus Carmelita, 1472.

Includes the first printed book on toxicology; one of the more elegantly printed of medical incunabula, printed in folio format. For an English translation, see Ann. med. Hist., 1924, 6, 26-53. ISTC No. ip00431000. Digital facsimile from the Bayerische Staatsbibliothek at this link. In 1473 The same printer reprinted Petrus de Abano's De venenis in quarto format with Arnaldus de Villa Nova De arte cognoscendi venena, Velascus de Tarenta, De epidemia et peste, and Matthaeus Silvaticus, De lapide begaar ex pandectis. In that form Petrus de Abano's work, which has its own colophon, must must have been sold separately since about half of the surviving copies of the 1473 edition consist of De venenis alone.
