Erste Ausgabe (Band 1 in 2. verbesserter Auflage) des besten Handbuchs seiner Zeit. - "Juncker's most important chemical text was the 'Conspectus..', a systematic exposition of the ideas and experiments of Becher and Stahl. By providing a critical and coherent treatment of Stahl's studies on chemical composition and reaction, the 'Conspectus' offered a more intelligible version of Stahl's work that gave it a greater audience ... Juncker played a significant part in the development of his mentor's ideas as a major force for reform in eighteenth-century chemistry" (DSB). - "Juncker, in this excellent textbook, provides a systematic exposition of the ideas of Becher and Stahl. Vol. I contains a short history of chemistry, chemical signs, instruments, operations, analysis and metals. Vol. II treats combustibles, acids, salts, fermentation and putrefaction. The importance of accurate experimental data is emphasized" (Cole). - Titel jeweils mit Namensstempel. Stellenweise etwas gebräunt bzw. stockfleckig. Ohne das Porträt. Einbände gering berieben.
