Dear Friends, the UPDATE n° 03 of digital links of the gnomonical digitized books, is ready on my web site
http://www.nicolaseverino.it At this time, you can download (for free) directly from my web site 46 first english printed gnomonical books!! Several books are about the gnomonica; other, on mathematics, astronomy, navigations, ecc. have a chapter about sundials more or less great (someone have oltre 100 pages about sundials!). This books are very rare and not easy to find in internet, because its are accessible only with a membership to the great institutions like EEBO, JSTOR, etc... You can take this first opportunity to download this books for free from my web site. Enjoy! Best wishes, Nicola Severino This is the list of authors and titles of the books in this updates n° 3.
