Elementorum Curvilineorium Libri tres. By John Baptista Porta. Rome, 1610, 4to.[93]
This is a ridiculous attempt, which defies description, except that it is all about lunules. Porta was a voluminous writer. His printer announces fourteen works printed, and four to come, besides thirteen plays printed, and eleven waiting. His name is, and will be, current in treatises on physics for more reasons than one.
