Description:
Amsterdam,: J. Müller & Comp.,, 1834.. viii, 222 pp. 8vo. Original printed wrappers, uncut. With one fine folded lithographed plate. The rare first Dutch edition, inspired by Blumenbach's "Geschichte und Beschreibung der Knochen des Menschlichen Kórpers" (Góttingen, 1786). Willem Vrolik ?exerted himself to enlarge and to describe the fine anatomical collection of his father Gerard, which contained, i.a., numerous skulls. It was named "Museum Vrolik" and became famous at home and abroad'. B.M.N. I, 101; Ekama/Teyler nr. 20: "Parmi les collections d'histoire naturelle, le Musée Vrolik jouit depuis longtemps d'une juste célébrité. MM. VROLIK, père et fils, ses fondateurs, ont consacré a son formation avec zèle infatigable, leur temps, leur vaste expérience et les ressources d'une fortune considerable. Il représente soixante années de travail..." Fine copy

Description:
Chicago,: Soc. of Med. History,, 1935.. 50 pp. 8vo (17.5 x 25.5 cm.). Original printed wrappers (slightly discoloured and a few spots; very small piece torn off from upper corner; some unobtrusive markt on the last 3 pages). ¶ Probably the first history on the subject. "Body-snatching was the bootlegging of human dead for purpose of dissection. A consideration of this forgotten trade show much parallelism between this and the recent booklegging of a very different commodity..." (from the introduction). When the practice of hands-on anatomical dissection became popular in United States medical education in the late 18th and early 19th centuries, demand for cadavers exceeded the supply. Slave bodies and thefts by grave robbers met this demand. Members of the public were aware that graves wre being robbed and countered with various protective measures. Since the deterrence of grave robbing took time and money, those elements of society who were least economically and social advantaged… Read More

Description:
Te Amsterdam, bij: Lodewijk van Es,, 1830.. xiii [i], [82] pp. Folio (25.5 x 40 cm.). recent 3/4 grained chesnut morocco, uncut.. With 47 plates on 38 engraved copper plates, of which 8 with partial contemporary hand colouring. The plates are re-engraved after the plates de Wandelaer made for the Albinus edition of Eustachius (1744). ¶ Very rare, being a reissue of the remainder of the original plates and text sheets of 1798 with only a new title page and preface by Suringar. 'A romantic history attaches to this fine collection of plates, drawn by Eustachius himself and completed in 1552. They remained unprinted and forgotten in the Vatican Library until discovered in the early 18th century, and were then presented by Pope Clement XI to his physician Giovanni Maria Lancisi. The latter published them in 1714 together with his own notes. These copperplates are more accurate than the work of Vesalius. Singer was of the opinion that had they appeared in 1552 Eustachius would have ranked with… Read More

As a physiologist he was the greatest of his time. Many apparently "new" discoveries of later times had already been accounted for by Haller. The above work includes Haller's resonance theory, similar to that already propounded by Du Verney and (more than 100 years later) by Helmholt" .
