Recent Acquisitions

We are pleased to announce List 24: Recent Acquisitions, containing 30 items in a variety of fields, including mathematics, philosophy, classics, brewing & distilling, and Scottish subjects.

Among the highlights are a rare 18th-century pamphlet on home brewing, a scarce Edinburgh printing of the classic abridgement of Locke’s essay, an important work in algebraic geometry, and ‘perhaps the most unsatisfactory’ edition of Theophrastus ever published.

You can read or download the list in PDF format here.
