1869885781869. MEDICINE SUGITA Gempaku. RANGAKU KOTO HAJIME. Tokyo Tenshinro Meiji 2 1869. 22.5 x 15.1 cm. 2 vols. srting-bound Japanese-style fukuro-toji. Original covers and printed paper title labels. This memoir by the scientist behind the ground-breaking KAITAI SHINSHO was originally completed in Gempaku's old age in 1815. It was transmitted via manuscript until the fall of the ancien regime when Fukuzawa Yukichi and Gempaku's grandson arranged to have it published in a woodblock edition. The book was written in a very clear and simple style and reveals the great lengths of ingenuity the KAITAI SHINSHO author/translators went to to uncover the secrets and understand the esoteric Dutch vocabulary of Kulmas' anatomy that they translated therein. The RANGAKU KOTOHAJIME is often cited as perhaps the earliest Japanese text to explain techniques of cryptoanalysis from a practical and logically rigorous point of view. It is also a compelling story of scientific investigation in isolated traditional Japan. Finally despite its relatively late publication date the RANGAKU KOTOHAJIME is vanishingly rare. Our copy is in very good condition enclosed in a custom-fitted clasped chitsu case. unknown
1829CJW1310Paris: J. B. Baillière 1829-42. FIRST EDITION IN BOOK FORM bound from the original parts. 486 x 337 mm. 19 1/8 x 13 1/4". Two volumes. <br/> Contemporary marbled boards backed with recent calf raised bands flanked by gilt fillets black morocco labels. WITH 231 LITHOGRAPHED PLATES two folding OF WHICH 167 ARE IN COLOR many heightened with gum arabic later tissue guards. Garrison & Morton 2286; "Heirs of Hippocrates" 863; Norman 538. ◆Corners and edges somewhat rubbed with some loss of paper as expected with large picture books text with variable foxing persistent but usually light never severe and principally confined to margins a handful of black & white plates with moderate spotting additional small defects internally otherwise quite a commendable copy of a book always found foxed browned and worse our volumes solidly restored now the spines unworn and the text and remarkable plates with no fatal condition problems.<br/> <br/> Garrison & Morton declares that "the fine illustrations of gross anatomy seen here make this one of the greatest works of its kind." The inaugural professor of pathological anatomy in Paris anatomist and pathologist Jean Cruveilhier 1791-1874 provided in the present work the first description of multiple sclerosis and an early identification of Cruveilhier's palsy. Hypertrophic pyloric stenosis and ulceration of the stomach due to hyperacidity were also detailed for the first time here. In "Doctrine of the Nerves" John A. Spillane called Cruveilhier "the prince of physician-pathologists" and this work a "treasure chest of neurology." "Heirs of Hippocrates" notes that "this atlas contains some of the finest illustrations of gross pathology ever made." The plates were done by anatomical illustrator Antoine Chazal 1793-1854 a French painter engraver art teacher at Muséum National d'Histoire Naturelle and great-uncle of Paul Gauguin. This work was originally issued in 40 parts at nine francs each over a period of 13 years. The parts were ultimately bound together into two volumes as here in a print run that based upon the subscriber's list was likely just more than 400 copies. While no stranger to auction rooms the book--a practical reference book heavily used by professionals--is all too often found with missing plates and/or parts and in condition that leaves much to be desired.

Newspaper. 11 3/4 x 9 ¼ inches. 7 Issues: vol. 1 nos. 1-3 vol. 2 nos. 5 and 8 and vol. 3 nos. 9 and 10 each issue containing four pages apparently 21 issues in five volumes were published through 1876. This was the third magazine produced by patients in an American asylum the first in the south. The other two were the Asylum Journal Vermont Asylum for the Insane 1842-46 and the Opal New York Asylum 1850-1860. The content much of it dealing with the inner workings of the asylum and its needs includes articles from Darwinism to Spiritualism and engages arguments with the definitions of insanity and the treatments then in practice. Some of the articles are tinged with humor toward the hospital's employees from poetry on the perils of working as a nurse in a hospital for the insane to running an ad for a wife for an official of the hospital.

The Alabama Insane Hospital was conceived under the influence of Dorothea Dix instrumental in the selection of Dr. Peter Bryce as its first superintendent in 1860 and Thomas Story Kirkbride its architect. Bryce 1834-1892 who had studied progressive ideas of treating the insane in Europe would head the institution until his death. The perennially underfunded hospital would prove self sufficient employing the patients to provide food heat and this newspaper both the editorial work and the printing process among other services reflecting the progressive belief of the time that activity settled the mind. Bryce and the hospital became known for innovative treatment of the mentally ill using a "therapeutic approach to treatment so called for its supposed ability to lead patients to an understanding and acceptance of 'right behavior'." The hospital accepted African-American patients including one who had been owned by Dr. Bryce but despite its progressive reputation in treatment the hospital showed the prejudices of the time by separating the patients by race. <br/><br/> Alabama Insane Hospital unknown books
