JENNER, William Lectures and Essays on Fevers and Diptheria, 1849 to 1879.
Macmillan NY 1893 Orig. cloth First collected edition. xii, 581 pp., 8vo. Contains his classical paper, On Typhoid and Typhus Fevers. "Despite Stewart's work there was still controversy as to the identity of typhoid and typhus. Jenner's paper demonstrated that the aetiology of the two was quite different, that one did not communicate or protect against the others and that epidemics of the two did not prevail simultaneously."-- Garrison-Morton 5027. An interesting footnote about Jenner: Garrison, (p. 629), reports that he was a "short, stout, solid, able-bodied man, yet so averse to exercise that he said he would not even walk from his front door to his brougham if he could get someone to carry him." (He achieved 83 years of age.) --Garrison-Morton 5027. Some light wear spots on binding. A very good copy.

"Excellent colored reproductions of paintings by the author. Adam used the ophthalmoscopic appearance as a basis for differential diagnosis of general diseases."--Rucker & Keys. Becker, p. 101, citing the English translation of 1913. This copy has a distinguished provenance. R.R. James was known as "a meticulous surgeon", as well as a historian who wrote "Studies in the History of Ophthalmology in England prior to the year 1800". (See Garrison-Morton 6004).

HARVEY, William Exercitationes de Generatione Animalium.
Elzevir Amsterdam 1651 Contemp. calf, with an early rebacking 568, (5) pp. Engraved title- page. 12mo. This Elzevir edition of Harvey's remarkable work is believed to be the first of three Amsterdam editions published the same year as the London first edition. "After the publication of De motu cordis, Harvey turned his attention to the study of generation. Even if Harvey had not discovered the circulation of the blood, his remarkable work on embryology would have placed him in the front ranks of biological scientists. Without benefit of the compound microscope, his work was necessarily limited; nevertheless, nothing comparable had been done since Aristotle. He disbelieved the previously-held doctrine of 'preformation' of the fetus, maintaining instead that it proceeds from the ovum by gradual building up of its parts. Always slow to publicize his findings, Harvey was only after some years persuaded by his friend, Sir George Ent, to put them into print."--Heirs of Hippocrates 436. Osler 712. Waller 4119. Wellcome III, 220. See Garrison Morton 467. --Heirs of Hippocrates 436. Osler 712. Waller 4119. Wellcome III, 220. See Garrison-Morton 467.

"Trousseau, great clinician of the Hôtel-Dieu, made important advances in the treatment of diphtheria, typhoid, scarlet fever and other conditions.

On pp. 112-14 Trousseau describes the phenomenon in tetany which now bears his name. This is produced by pressure upon the arm sufficient to stop the circulation; the result is a sudden contraction of the fingers and hand into the so-called 'obstetrical position'."--Garrison-Morton 2221 & 4830.
