A TREATISE ON RUPTURES CONTAINING AN ANATOMICAL DESCRIPTION OF EACH SPECIES WITH AN ACCOUNT OF ITS SYMPTOMS PROGRESS AND TREATMENT

1824ST20601London: Printed for Callow and Wilson 1824. Fourth Edition. 235 x 145 mm. 9 1/4 x 5 3/4". xvii 1 568 pp. Publisher's gray paper boards flat spine with printed paper label leaves untrimmed. WITH TWO ENGRAVED PLATES one folding. Early ink ownership inscription of Jas. McKee on title page. Wellcome III p. 462; Garrison-Morton 3587 5th Edition; Heirs of Hippocrates 822 Second Edition. 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. 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. Printed for Callow and Wilson

A PRACTICAL TREATISE UPON DENTITION; OR THE BREEDING OF TEETH IN CHILDREN

1742ST16000London: Printed for the author 1742. FIRST EDITION. 205 x 130 mm. 8 x 5". xxiv 285 1 pp. 3 leaves index. Contemporary sprinkled calf covers with double gilt-ruled borders raised bands flanked by gilt rules neatly rebacked preserving original backstrip one corner restored. Front flyleaf with ink inscription of Wm. Barber dated 1790. Weinberger "Introduction to the History of Dentistry" p. 330; Garrison-Morton 3672; Wellcome II 320; ESTC T63467. ◆Joints lightly rubbed corners a little bumped and worn but the binding solid and perfectly satisfactory; a handful of creased corners and a couple of trivial blemishes but the contents in very fine condition the paper clean and bright and obviously read very little. This is a fresh appealing copy of the first modern book on teething and the second book on dentistry in English. Weinberger says that "as far as English dental literature is concerned it began with Joseph Hurlock in 1742. Hurlock was a strong advocate of lancing the gums of infants to permit teeth to erupt more readily and thus prevent convulsions. His treatise was a plea for parents and nurses to allow him to carry out this procedure." The book documents symptoms of dentition difficulties and reports on cases in which our author lanced the gums of children whose health problems he attributed to teething trouble--not always with happy outcomes. The book does contain advice that was more beneficial. Weinberger notes "Hurlock apparently was a keen observer of dental conditions then found in children noticing that the havoc wrought by caries in the deciduous teeth was undoubtedly due to diet and recommended that such youngsters be sent to the country where fresh air and better food could be obtained." Little is known of the author who has no other works recorded in libraries or bibliographies. It has been suggested that he was related to the Joseph Hurlock 1715-93 who was a director of the East India Company. We are fortunate that Mr. Hurlock did not stint when it came to the quality of paper on which his treatise was printed; the text here has come down to us crisp and bright as a result.

DISCORSI INTORNO AL SANGUINAR I CORPI HUMANI IL MODO DI ATACCARE LE SANGUISUCHE E VENTOSE E FAR FRITTIONI E VESICATORII

1584ST20779Rome: Bartolomeo Bonfadino & Tito Diani 1584. FIRST EDITION. 215 x 150 mm. 8 1/2 x 6". 6 p.l. 106 pp 1 leaf errata. 17th century sprinkled vellum raised bands leather spine panels with gilt lion ornaments red morocco label. Engraved title page woodcut initials and headpieces and 11 engraved plates of bloodletting. Title page with ink owner inscription of "Joann De Ville Chirurgo Lugdunesse 1629"; a couple of neat marginal annotations in Italian apparently by the same hand; four ink numbers on lower cover. Wellcome I 3959; EDIT16 CNCE 46661; Mortimer Italian II 267 second edition; USTC 839623. Boards a bit splayed gilt on spine a little rubbed moderate wear and soiling to the vellum text slightly browned at edges and with occasional minor foxing half a dozen leaves slightly browned but still an excellent unrestored copy quite fresh internally the engravings sharp and the binding completely solid. This is a 17th century surgeon's copy of a strikingly illustrated and centrally important 16th century treatise on bloodletting. Piacenza physician Pietro Paolo Magni's detailed discussion of the use of leeches and cupping-glasses long served as the standard work on the topic. Its 11 well-executed engravings are visually compelling as well as providing a rich source of information on the details of 16th century medical practice. There is some debate about their creator: Wellcome and Hirsch attribute them to Adamo Ghisi also Scultori ca. 1530-85 who executed the illustrated title page of this edition; Graesse and Mortimer on the other hand assign them to Cherubino Alberti 1553–1615 who was responsible for the engraved title in the second edition. Either way they are as evocative to modern-day viewers as they must have once been useful to surgeons and physicians of the 16th century. The dramatically lit scenes feature focused doctors armed with lancets and bowls to catch the blood attending to patients who grimace wilt or look away in stoic resignation. Our former owner Jean de Ville identifies himself as a Lyonnaise surgeon on the title page in an inscription dated 1629. His occasional notes on the text and illustrations indicate he was consulting this book as a reference for his own practice he writes above one illustration for example that "this operation should be performed on the left arm". This seems to be a rare work in institutional collections USTC finding only one copy in North America. Bartolomeo Bonfadino & Tito Diani unknown

MEMORIA CHIRURGICA SUI PIEDI TORTI CONGENITI DEI FANCIULLI E SULLA MANIERA DI CORREGGERE QUESTA DEFORMITA DI ANTONIO SCARPA

1803ST18718Pavia: Appresso Giuseppe Comini 1803. FIRST EDITION. 309 x 225 mm. 12 1/8 x 8 7/8". 42 pp. without the blank called for by Norman. Contemporary paper boards patterned to look like tree calf smooth spine. WITH FIVE ENGRAVED PLATES THREE OF THEM FOLDING BY FAUSTINO ANDERLONI. Norman 1900; Garrison-Morton 4308. See also: Heirs of Hippocrates p. 292; DSB XII pp. 136-39. ◆Two-inch dampstain to upper right corner of front cover also slightly affecting margins of first 10 leaves extremities a little worn but still a nearly fine copy--clean fresh and bright internally with excellent impressions of the plates in a sturdy contemporary binding. In excellent unsophisticated condition this is a rare copy of the first edition of what Garrison-Morton tells us is the "first accurate description of the pathological anatomy of congenital club-foot." In addition to correctly describing the anatomy of this common birth defect surgeon Antonio Scarpa also devised a brace for treating the malformation--detailed engravings of which are shown on the accompanying plates. A student of Morgagni Scarpa 1852-1932 quickly rose to prominence becoming a professor at the age of 20 and authoring several important works in the fields of otology cardiology ophthalmology and neuroanatomy among others. As DSB relates "his fame was so great that in 1805 he was personally complimented by Napoleon." According to Heirs of Hippocrates Scarpa was "a brilliant artist as well as a brilliant anatomist" who included his own anatomical drawings engraved by Faustino Anderloni in many of his published texts including the present work. The images here go beyond simply depictive to evoke an emotional response from the viewer who is invited to identify with the distress of the afflicted. Our first edition is a rare book: we could trace just two copies sold on RBH. Appresso Giuseppe Comini unknown

PRACTICAL OBSERVATIONS ON THE CONVULSIONS OF INFANTS

1826ST14206London: Burgess and Hill 1826. FIRST EDITION. 215 x 135 mm. 8 1/2 x 5 3/8". x 2 282 pp. 1 blank leaf lacking half title. 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. 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.".

A Collection of 26 Medical Dissertations chiefly published in Strasbourg

1684264562v.p. Strasbourg Heidelberg Marburg Wittenberg etc. 1684. 1 vols. 4to. Later vellum-backed boards. Front joint split some foxing browning marginal stains. 1 vols. 4to. A collection of 26 medical dissertations mostly published in Strasbourg 1637-1684 related to various topics including dysentery gunshot wounds the plague kidney stones psychological ailments sleeplessness surgery on tumors tooth rot and other maladies. The book includes a manuscript index note at the beginning of the volume and each pamphlet is numbered in manuscript. Most of the titles are quite rare OCLC showing 3-5 institutions as holding the individual titles.

ANATOMIE PATHOLOGIQUE DU CORPS HUMAIN

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. 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. 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.
