Note

1 The Latin text was established by S. Caroti, M. Pereira, S. Zamponi and P. Zambelli. The English translation was by C. S. F. Burnett, K. Lippincott, D. Pingree and P. Zambelli. Fifty-three manuscripts containing the text are listed. The textual apparatus is not repeated, so the 1977 edition is needed still for that. The method of the original edition was criticized by O. Pedersen, J. Weisheipl and G. Hissette. For a reply Weisheipl, see Caroti, S. and Zamponi, S. in Annali dell'lstituto e Museo di Storia delta Scienza di Firenze (1980), 5, 111–17.Google Scholar
