A collection of works written by Jan Baptist van Helmont of Brussels (d. 1644). The first edition was overseen by his son Franciscus Mercurius and was published in 1648, with later editions appearing in quick succession (1651, 1652, 1655, 1667, 1682, etc.). To historians of Irish medicine, it may be known chiefly for a short passage on the hereditary nature of medicine among families of physicians in 17th-century Ireland and their use of manuscripts for medical knowledge.
