Video Orientation to the University of Pennsylvania Library's Ms. Codex 1663 is divided into two books, with the first on mathematics and judicial astrology and the second book concerning palmistry. Includes an introduction by the compiler (f. 2r) and a table of contents (f. 2v-4v). It was compiled by Luigi Maria Cagnacci, who was a Professor of science, mathematics, and astronomy and member of the Florentine Academy. Written in Florence after 1689 (title page, f. 1r).
