A collection of geographical, astronomical, and astrological problems corrected from the observations communicated to the Royal Society's of London and Paris ; also the Theory of the tides from Sir Isaac Newton's Works ; likewise an attempt to assign the physical cause of the trade winds and monsoons
A 1723 scientific treatise by Robert Stearne, compiling corrected geographical, astronomical and astrological problems drawn from Royal Society observations, with a theory of tides based on Newton. Its single picture is a plain line-engraved diagram of a compass-style north marker and a shaded half-disc with a letter C, suggesting eclipse or celestial-diagram vocabulary for a designer working with minimal etched forms and lettering.
