is an original book called "The Religious Philosopher or the Right Use of Contemplating the Works of the Creator ... Designed for the Conviction of Atheists and Infidels". I left out a few parts since it can be seen in the scans. Front cover has separated at the seam during scanning but the binding for the pages and overall is still good. I scanned one of the charts inside but stopped from doing more so as to not damage the rest of the binding. This book appears to be a typical treatise against the Newtonian scientists and the rise of scientific thought and investigation. It's interesting to read and is an authentic piece of historical thinking and reflects the typically conservative religious perspective of its day, the very thing that progressive scientific thought and discovery labored against for so long...............IMHO...the atheists and infidels part is a bit scary and seems to indicate the author wants a new Spanish Inquisition cranked up to take care of those godless and dangerous science types.....
