1913. St. Petersburg, "Ja Trei" Publishers, 1913, 8°, 33, (1) pp., orig. Broschur. FIRST EDITION in a good copy. The years from 1906 to the revolution of 1917 encompass the third phase of Bekhterev's scientific activity, and this period may be called psychoneurological and sociological. Extremely popular with students, liberal elements of the intelligentsia, and the democratic press, Bekhterev became an important public figure as well as an illustrious savant with an international reputation. In no other country has such a reputation counted higher in public esteem than in Russia. And so his prestige grew he was looked upon with increasing suspicion by conservative academic and governmental circles. This may have accounted for the fact that in 1913, after 35 years of Service, his faculty appointment at the Military Medical Academy was not renewed and he was retired as emeritus at the age of 56. The upper margin of the first leave has been cut off by some barbarian presumably t eliminate previous… Read More

1813. Med.-chir. Ztg., 1813/1-4. - Salzburg, Mayr'schen Buchdruckerey, 1813, 8°, 432; 432; 464; 397, 79 pp.; 1 gestochene Tafel, 4 Pappbände der Zeit mit roten Rückenschildern; feines Expl. First Edition of the first scientific treatise on the transurethral destruction and extraction of bladder stones without any incision being made! It was at this time, in the early nineteenth century, that there was much controversy about whether a straight sound or tube could be passed through the male urethra. A Bavarian physician, Dr. Gruithuisen (1774-1852), settled this question, and at the same time devised the first model of a possibly workable lithotrite for the destruction of bladder stones. His scientific work on the treatment of bladder stones Gruithuisen's most important work in urology was his memoir published in the Medicinisch-Chirurgische Zeitung (Journal of Medicine and Surgery) of Salzburg. It appeared on 4 March 1813 with the very significant title ''Should one abandon the long-standing… Read More

1835. C. R. Acad. Sci., 1/21. - 21 Décembre 1835, 4°, pp.499-518, feine Broschur. First Edition! Macedonio Melloni (1798-1854) was an Italian physicist, notable for demonstrating that radiant heat has similar physical properties to those of light. "In 1835, Melloni was reluctant to accept the complete identity of heat and light (as suggested by Ampère, see below), arguing that light and radiant heat "proceed from two distinct causes". But in a footnote he added that "These two causes themselves are, perhaps, but different effects of a single cause". He insisted that light and heat are "two essentially distinct modifications which the aethereal fluid suffers in its mode of existence". See Melloni, M., "Observations et expériences relatives à la théorie de l'identité des agents qui produisent la lumière et la chaleur rayonnante", Comptes Rendus ... Académie des Sciences, Paris, i (1835), 503-508 Melloni declared himself a definite supporter of the wave theory and affirmed the… Read More

1945. Guy's Hosp. Rep., 94. - London, Guy's Hospital, 1945, 8°, (2), 150 pp., Abbildungen, orig. Leinenband. Arthur Hurst (1879-1944) was the first British Physician to stimulate interest in the disease and disorders of the alimentary tract. It was his curiosity, his vision, his enthusiasm and the remarkably high quality of his original work which laid the foundations for gastroenterology as we know it today. Hitherto the gut had remained invisible, impalpable and except at both ends, inaccessible. Within his lifetime visualisation began to be achieved and clinical gastroenterology emerged as a speciality.

1853. Med.-Chir. Trans., 36. - Published by the Medical and Chirurgical Society. London 1853, 8°, XLIII, (1), 496 pp., zahlr. Taf., orig. Leinenband. First Edition! Out of the profusion of literature of this period, the work of the English anatomist and physiologist Wharton Jones is outstanding. In a well outlined, clear and concise paper on the comparative blood pictures of representative vertebrates from the skate to man, Jones enumerated the forms of cells which he found. He was also a founder of the monophyletic school, for he considered all forms found in the blood to be stages in the development of the red cell. He outlines his classification as follows: First phase: Granule cell. coarsely granular stage, finely granular stage. Second phase: Nucleated cell. uncolored stage, colored stage. Third phase: Free cellaeform nucleus or red cell. In the first phase no nucleus is visible until acetic acid is added. Jones describes the appearance of several nuclei in these cells with… Read More

1779. London : Printed for J. Wallis, in Ludgate Street, 1779, 8°, (2), 81 pp., feiner Halbledereinband. Rare First Edition! "Mr. Hey published, in the year 1779, " Observations on the Blood," a small tract in octavo containing eighty-one pages. In this production the author dissents from some opinions maintained by the late Mr. Hewson, in his Experimental Inquiry, wherein he undertakes to prove that " inflammation, instead of increasing the disposition of the blood to coagulate, really lessens it ; and instead of thickening the blood, really thins it ; at least, that part which forms the crust ; viz the coagulable lymph." Mr. Hey likewise controverts the experiments made, and the inferences deduced, by Mr. Hewson on the state of the blood drawn from the bloodvessels of dying animals. It seems that Mr. Hewson having remarked, that the blood taken from a person labouring under an inflammatory disease was longer in coagulating than blood drawn in a healthy state, concluded, that inflammation has… Read More

First Edition of the first clear description of chronic constrictive pericarditis through Norman Chevers (1818-1886), a fine copy in original state of the complete number of the journal, with original printed wrappers and green cloth spine. "Chevers's article gave the first clear account of chronic constrictive pericarditis. "He discussed the compression effects of pericardial adhesions and he manner in which they restricted both systole and disastole of the heart, emphasitzing particularly the interference with diastole. Clevers believed that, when cardiac enlargement acompanied the occurrence of pericardial adhesions, some other cause for the enlagrement must be sought, such as valvular lesions. In fact he was of the opinion that constriction of the heart was… Read More
