Lecture notes, divided in three sections, Phisica, Metaphisica, and Moralis, illustrated with 9 engraved plates. The professor, Pierre Ricaud, was possibly a member of the Société des sciences of Toulouse where two of the plates, engraved by Baour, were printed. The volume is a gift to his student Bernard Vaillé. The first section, titled Phisica particularis (p. 1) describes the earth, cosmography, the elements, and human physiology; the second section, metaphysics and theology; and the third section, ethics. Each section is preceded by a plate depicting an allegorical female figure, each ends with an index, and each is paginated separately.
