409376From the Bart Auerbach Collection. A corner torn from seal with loss of a few letters else fine. 3 1/4 pages plus address panel a bifolium. In French. A densely written letter about human deformity. Answering a letter by Hecquet questioning whether it is theologically sound to baptize deformed babies what he calls "monsters". Bocquillot answers that in some cases the deformity is caused by bestiality and implies that in that case the child is not properly human. He believes however that when the deformity happens naturally what he calls the "mother's fantasy" or some other accident of nature it must be seen as part of God's plan – the “monster†partakes of human nature and so it should be baptized. He goes on to cite St. Augustine's concurrence in this matter in his Enchiridion.<br /> <br /> Summarizing his argument: "Quoi qu'ils ne paraissent point dignes de ce sacrement a cause de leur figure bizarre on les y doit croire dignes par leur nature" Though they don't seem worthy of this sacrament baptism on account of their bizarre appearance we must believe them to be worthy of it on account of their human nature. unknown
1870List36105N.p. 1870. Carte After the original photograph by William Edward Kilburn 1818–1891 taken circa 1854 with later CDV issue probably circa 1870s. Albumen print mounted on card; sitter identified in print beneath image. Standard carte-de-visite format approximately 2½ x 4 inches. Excellent contrast with light surface wear. Seated three-quarter portrait of Nightingale in dark silk dress with white collar hands folded over a paper posed beside an upholstered Victorian chair. The image derives from a sitting arranged in London with William Edward Kilburn one of Britain’s early professional photographers and a former daguerreotypist who gained fame by exhibiting at the Great Exhibition of 1851. By the early 1850s Kilburn had established a reputation for photographing members of the aristocracy and prominent public figures.<br /> <br /> The Nightingale sitting happened shortly before her departure for the Crimea in October 1854 at a moment when her name was just entering the public press. The portrait predates her full transformation into the national icon later known as the “Lady with the Lamp.†Unlike later more romanticized images Kilburn’s photograph presents a composed unsentimental likeness more consistent with standard portraiture practices than her later photographs. Following Nightingale’s wartime service at Scutari 1854–1856 and the subsequent surge of public acclaim Kilburn’s image became the primary photographic source from which engravings lithographs and later carte-de-visite reproductions were made.1<br /> <br /> 1 Denis Pellerin “Florence Nightingale: The Mystery Behind Her Iconic Photographs†The Classic November 15 2020 https://theclassicphotomag.com/florence-nightingale-the-mysteries-behind-her-iconic-photographs/ accessed February 27 2026. unknown

FIRST EDITION. 215 x 135 mm. 8 1/2 x 5 3/8". x 2 282 pp. 1 blank leaf lacking half title. <br/> Recent retrospective dark brown quarter calf over marbled boards raised bands gilt titling. Title page with ink library stamp of University College Hospital Medical School Library. The Founders of Child Neurology 1990 pp. 148-52. ◆Title a little foxed with a half-inch brown strip from older binding along gutter edge last two leaves with minor foxing otherwise a fine copy clean fresh and surprisingly bright in an unworn sympathetic binding.<br/> <br/> This is the first edition of the first monograph in English on the subject of convulsions in children by a man considered to be one of the founders of child neurology. One of 300 original Fellows of the Royal College of Surgeons and a renowned London practitioner specializing in midwifery and the diseases of women and children John North 1790-1873 was a forthright plain-spoken man whose obituary even noted that "he was occasionally too brusque to be pleasant." This candor was an asset in his writings. As "The Founders of Child Neurology" notes "Whereas most 18th- and early 19th-century medical authors were opaque verbose and interminable theorists North wrote simply and clearly avoided speculation admitted ignorance and actually dealt with practical matters such as distinguishing between types of convulsions and the extent of treatment required. Also perhaps in keeping with his character he did not hesitate to criticize other authors with whom he disagreed." One of his main targets was John Clarke who had declared that "every case of convulsion" resulted in "inevitable organic damage" to the brain. Consequently Clarke called for drastic treatment of every seizure whether caused by teething or serious illness often doing more harm than good with his purgatives clysters and bleeding. North saw convulsions as a disturbance in the brain but not as evidence of organic disease citing as evidence the lack of brain lesions found in autopsies of children who had died of convulsions. He distinguished epilepsy from other causes of seizures and was perhaps the first to note the association between rickets and convulsions. "Founders" concludes "his greatest gift to his contemporaries may have been his reiterated contention that most babies with convulsions need not be assaulted with calomel leeches and the lancet.".

1910231281910. Women's History Women in scientific and medical laboratories photo archive documenting female participation in laboratory education microscopy chemical work dental training and technical employment across the first half of the twentieth century providing concrete visual evidence of how women entered scientific institutions in the years before full professional parity. The group brings together press and non-press photographs with identifiable news-service and reference-file markings that place several images within the public circulation of women's technical labor. Many of these photographs show women operating microscopes handling laboratory equipment conducting demonstrations and working within instructional and testing settings making the group especially effective as evidence of women's participation in scientific education industrial science and medical training.<br /> <br /> Photo archive of 10 silver gelatin photographs various sizes ranging from 2" x 3 to 7 x 10 inches United States and around the globe circa 1910-1946. The group includes a 1934 press photograph of Victoria Fischer in a laboratory identified on the verso as connected to Tokio Girl's Medical College in Japan shown standing at a bench with pipette flask and rack of test tubes; a 1946 photograph of Kinjian Laboratory showing a large coeducational classroom of students in white lab coats seated and standing around laboratory tables with test tubes and other equipment in hand; and a circa 1920s non-press photograph of four dental students all young women in lab coats seated around a table of instruments. Another non-press photograph circa 1930 identifies the senior female students of Mother Catherine High School and shows an all-female laboratory class with biological and ecological samples in the foreground bell jars between table and shelving and additional worktables beyond. A thick matted photograph with black border circa 1910 shows a skylit laboratory interior with approximately twenty-five men and four women gathered around long benches. Press photographs include a March 4 1941 Ottawa image of a woman operating a high-powered microscope in a gauge testing laboratory; a 1930s U.S. Testing Company Laboratories image from Hoboken New Jersey showing a woman in the fiber analysis section at a microscope bench; a 1933 press image of a woman and man conducting an experiment involving heated metal apparatus; and a 1924 Washington D.C. press photograph identifying Theresa Karger as chief of the chemical laboratory at Mount Alto U.S. Veterans Hospital described as one of the women in unusual employment. <br /> The archive aligns with a long period in which women entered scientific and medical work through segregated colleges women's schools wartime necessity industrial laboratories and specialized technical training often gaining access first in educational or auxiliary settings before achieving broader professional recognition. Its international scope is a particular strength: the photographs place women in laboratory systems from the the beginning of the century through World War II and the immediate postwar period showing how female students technicians and researchers across studied and contributed to science. Minor corner and edge wear and residue on versos from press filing stamps and caption mounts; overall good condition. A concise and materially grounded record of women's scientific labor and educational access as women's presence in STEM moved from exceptional visibility into institutional practice. unknown

Spine and boards a bit darkened covers with a hint of soiling occasional light foxing a few closed tears not affecting text other trivial defects but AN EXTREMELY FINE COPY the insubstantial binding with nothing approaching a significant defect and the text remarkably bright clean and fresh.<br /><br />Still in its original boards and in lovely condition this extensive treatise on the causes and treatment of hernias was written by an English surgeon known as a radical precursor of Darwinian attitudes towards the nature and development of man. One of our author's earliest publications when it was first issued in 1807 as "A Treatise on Hernia" the present work won a prize at the Royal College of Surgeons. According to Heirs of Hippocrates William Lawrence 1783-1867 "contributed significantly to the understanding and management of ruptures" and his "Treatise" "remained for many years the standard work on the subject." Lawrence crossed swords with both the Church of England and the medical establishment with several lectures and publications that espoused his materialist views applauded France and the United States for their commitment to free scientific thought and even dared to question Old Testament narratives regarding the origins of man. DNB tells us that "Throughout the nineteenth century . . . he was often regarded as a martyr for the cause of science and of intellectual liberty. His lectures were even cited as precursors for such later works of scientific naturalism as Charles Darwin's 'Descent of Man' 1871 and Thomas Huxley's 'Man's Place in Nature' 1863." Various editions of the present work can be found on the market but it would be difficult to find one in better contemporary condition than ours.</p> Printed for Callow and Wilson
