FIRST EDITION of Guericke\'s record of the famous 1657 Magdeburg experiments with air and vacuum, in which he demonstrated that two copper hemispheres could not be pulled apart by teams of horses once a vacuum was created. \"A book of prime importance in electrical discovery, air-pressure and the vacuum pump\' states Dibner, though Guericke was a Copernican and \'his experimental work represented only one facet of his attempt to reach a complete physical world view.\' As the sub-title makes clear, his book also dealt with the problems of empty space and the movement of heavenly bodies, making \'infinite space ... a conceptual possibility\" (DSB V, p 576). Dibner Heralds 55; Grolier/Horblit 44; Sparrow Milestones of Science 90; NLM/Krivatsy 5074; Norman 952; Wellcome III, p 175; Wheeler Gift 170.
