Information
Parigi, J. B. M. Duprat, 1803. In 4°. Ochietto, in barbe, 15 tavole incise in rame ripiegate in fine, fioriture, legatura in carta coeva, autore e titolo stampati al dorso, piatti scoloriti e con strappi, dorso spaccato.
Prima edizione. "In Geometrie de Position, Carnot developed what he had at first intended as a somewhat fuller edition of the Correlation des figures into a vastly more extensive exploration of the problem-solving reaches of geometry. The method bore a marked resemblance to the prisims of Euclid, an affinity that Carnot recognized, for he was well versed in the history of geometry."-DSB III, p. 78.
