Notes: Notes: Attribution not certain. Library cataloguers do not seem to have picked up that the 1753 materialist work of this title published in Amsterdam by Louis Malo Moreau de Saint-Elier, the brother of Maupertuis, is a very different text from a Christian-inspired work published in Amsterdam in 1781 under the title 'Les Songes physiques, ou diverses questions problématiques, avec les différentes réponses, répliques ou réfutations qui ont été faites sur chacune de ces questions'. As the STN acquired this work in 1787 it seems more likely to have been the latter, which although frequently attributed to Moreau de Saint-Elier, was presumably by another hand.
