203 pages including index and several black and white photographic plates. Gives an up-to-date approach to an ancient art, in which hypnosis is regarded as a potent and multi-faceted tool which can be used to modify patient-reactions resulting from surgery and complex treatments, such as coronary care and renal dialysis. Obstetrics and dentistry excepted, its use to replace normal anaesthetic methods is nearly obsolete today. The hospital doctor who realizes the reciprocal effects of severe illness on his patient's psyche yet deprecates the routine use of tranquilizers, will find this book invaluable. Book in excellent condition; clean, lightly worn and unmarked. Dust jacket bears a variety of smallish tears at edges and has chips missing. Book

Jean Scultet conosciuto anche come Johann Schultes o Scultetus Johannes (1595-1645) fu un celere chirurgo tedesco. Nato a Ulm , Jean Scultet era figlio di un barcaiolo e già questo lo distingueva dalla maggioranza dei suoi colleghi dell'epoca che provenivano da famiglie abbienti o di medici. Studiò medicina e chirurgia presso l'Università di Padova, dove fu allievo del grande Fabrizio Aquapendante e di Spigelius dal quale apprese l'arte della chirurgia. Nel 1621 ottenne la qualifica di Dottore in medicina, chirurgia e filosofia e dopo aver brevemente esercitato a Padova e Vienna ritornò alla sua città natale, aveva 30 anni. Scultet è considerato uno dei più importanti medici e chirurghi del suo tempo. Famoso per la sua abilità, la sua audacia e la grande inventiva, Scultet è celebre anche per aver creato numerosi strumenti chirurgici tra i quali alcuni particolarmente innovativi per la chirurgia, la flebectomia e vari apparecchi per la cura delle fratture. Ha sviluppato un tipo di benda che porta il suo nome. L'Armamentario Chirurgicum, la sua opera più importante, venne pubblicata a Ulm nel 1653 ed è considerata una delle opere più importanti della storia della chirurgia. L'opera, che uscì postuma dato che Scultet morì nel 1645 è illustrata da numerose incisioni che descrivono gli strumenti inventati dall'autore e fu pubblicato a cura di suo nipote. Il volume ebbe subito uno straordinario successo, fu subito tradotto in numerose lingue. Ad esempio la Compagnia delle Indie Orientale adottò la traduzione olandese dell'opera come testo ufficiale per la formazione dei sui medici. "One of the great illustrators of surgery and surgical instruments" (Garrison Morton). Questa edizione francese, la seconda, è fra le più rare mai stampate. Bibl.: Waller 8790.
