Petri van Musschenbroek ... physicae experimentales, et geometricae de magnete, tuborum capillarium vitreorumque speculorum attractione, magnitudine terrae, cohaerentia corporum firmorum dissertationes: ut et ephemerides meteorologicae ultraiectinae
A 1729 Latin natural philosophy treatise by Petrus van Musschenbroek, published by Samuel Luchtmans, covering magnetism, capillary attraction, and experimental physics for scholars and university students. The plates are engraved diagrams of experimental apparatus and instruments. Their clean line work, hatched shading, and labelled figures give designers a model for technical scientific illustration, with magnetic field lines drawn as radiating strokes.
