Very good condition. A seventeenth-century gynecological treatise by J. Pratensis (1486-1558), a Dutch physician and humanist, first published in 1531. Pratensis' medical works, though conservative in spirit, are valued "primarily because of the Renaissance Latin in which they were written" (Wikipedia).
