Edition Notes
Among several inventions described and partly illustrated in this work are a telegraph and an alphabetical combination lock. Book XVI, "De scientiis," contains treatises on music, algebra, arithmetic and geometry.
Third edition, in which the author retracts his famous statement (printed in the 2nd ed.), "Igitur his arbitrio victoriæ relictis," a remark that made his religious convictions suspect to the authorities of church and state. See Brunet V, 1573 which lists this edition.
"Hieronymi Cardani ... In calumniatorem librorum De subtilitate, actio prima ad Franciscum Abundium": p. 1265-1426 (the author's Apology).
