Since I have been enjoying Michael Maier's Atalanta fugiens so much, I thought I would explore some of his other books. The contents of this book look very intriguing (with an index at the back to make it useful for research), but it is not illustrated. It has a lovely frontispiece, but that is the only illustration in the book (despite the title). All the rest is text (Latin).
