Hardcover. Condición: Good. No Jacket. 1st Edition. Suarez de Ribera, Francisco. Cirurgia natural infalible. Madrid, Juan de Ariztia, 1721. Small 4to.[36]f + 243 + [11]p. Contemporary limp vellum. First edition of innovative suggestions for allegedly infallible medical and surgical cures by the Salamancan physician Francisco Suárez de Ribera (c1686-1738). In the first part of the book the author deals in some detail with "sorcerers" and "faith-healers", condemning the former as superstitious charlatans and commenting on the scarcity of genuine divinely-gifted healers. The discussion concludes with the author's assertion that he is neither a quack nor a faith-healer. The second part of the work opens with the author's denial that sorcery alone can produce total infallibility. He states that his definition of an infallible cure is one which is almost always effective, and provides a vaariety of case studies relating to ulcers, gangrene, rabies etc which prove the success of his methods. A number of general comments on physicians and apothecaries follow, and the work concludes with 80 aphorisms in Latin newly composed by the author. Palau 324064. Not in Waller.
