Rare First London Edition Of Gray's Anatomy. In very good condition. Protected in a custom leather clamshell case. Printed in 1858. Gray's Anatomy was originally issued in a cloth binding. This book was custom bound in fine leather by the prestigious 19th century bindery 'E. Walker & Sons' Bindery in New York soon after publication, and presumably has been rebound mid 20th century judging by the condition of the leather. This book comes with a matching leatherbound clamshell case. This book was custom bound and intended as a gift, thereby removing it from circulation. Most copies were used during dissection and exhibit significant usage wear. This copy is in remarkable condition. Half Title page is completely present. This book is complete. Only light generalized abrasion, wear to the marbled covers, as shown. Some generalized usage wear. Writing in pencil on final page of the index. One page has creased corner. In highly giftable and presentable condition.

Royal 8vo. xxxii, 750 pp. (note: page 369 incorrectly numbered 367). With 363 wood-engravings, index.


Modern half calf by E. Walker & Sons Bookbinders, marbled boards, raised bands, gilt-stamped rules and spine title on dark brown morocco, all edges marbled. Matching custom clamshell box.


Provenance: Original binder's stamp at rear: E. Walker & Sons, New York; title inscription to previous owner: Charles E. Hagner from Dr. Charles H. Smith. Presumably imported from London and soon custom bound in New York as a gift, thereby removing it from circulation, as most copies were used during disssection and destroyed by use. The current leather binding is recent, and it utilizes the original marbled covers. Charles Evelyn Hagner, M.D., (1847 - 1892), medical doctor and father of the first White House Press Secretary. He became a member of the Washington D.C. Medical Society in 1869. Charles Evelyn Hagner, M.D., of Washington D.C., gave a paper, "A Case of Hernia of Parturient Uterus through the Linea Alba." Read before the Medical Society of the District of Columbia, October 31, 1888. (JAMA.)


Handsome copy. RARE. FIRST EDITION, one of only 2000 copies printed, of the medical text which has been more widely used by successive generations of medical students and doctors than any other. Not only an important book of reference, Gray's Anatomy has become a household phrase.


"The success of the book was not due to an absence of rivals. There were already several texts on anatomy Gray's Anatomy, however, eclipsed all others, partly for its meticulous detail, partly for its emphasis on surgical anatomy, but most of all perhaps for the excellence of the illustrations, based on drawings by H. V. Carter, who assisted Gray with the dissections, and engraved by Messrs. Butterworth and Heath with remarkable skill. The design of the book, and the skill with which the illustrations were interpolated in the text, could hardly have been improved" (ODNB).


"The success of Gray's work may be due to the fact that he wrote clearly and arranged the contents of his book so well, integrating surgical anatomy into the main text. The excellent illustrations may also have contributed â " these were wood engravings after drawings by Henry Vandyke Carter, Gray's assistant at St. George's Medical School." Richard L. Golden [Grolier 100 Medical, 68].


"This lasting and monumental work, produced by a young man who dies young, must be compared to the Fabrica of Vesalius, who produced his great work before the age of thirty years" (Heirs to Hippocrates).


"The legendary work of Henry Gray titled Anatomy: Descriptive and Surgical, popularly known as Gray's Anatomy was published in 1858 and the voluminous text had 750 pages which were complimented with 363 illustrations. Gray was an English anatomist & surgeon and he was a Fellow of the Royal College of Surgeons at the time his work was first published. As the title of the text as well as the background of its author would suggest, Gray's text provided deep insights into the application of the knowledge of anatomy to surgical practice. In fact, the primary objective of the author was to induce the reader to apply the anatomical details to hone one's skills as a surgeon. In a way Gray's Anatomy followed the trend established by John and Charles Bell in their anatomical text, however Gray was able to present the details in a more evolved, elaborate and precise manner based on his long dissection sessions as well as through more number of illustrations used in the text. Moreover, Gray's Anatomy also introduced the concept of sectional anatomy by the use of illustrative depictions of methodically prepared sections of the human body. Although the concept presented in the text was in a rudimentary state, nevertheless it laid the foundation of a major advancement within the domain of anatomical sciences. In order to propel his readers forward Gray himself travelled the reverse path when as a painstaking and methodical worker, Gray (although he was a trained surgeon) advanced his anatomical knowledge by the slow but invaluable method of making dissections for himself. The key component of the success story of Gray's Anatomy were the observations noted during the course of these detailed human dissections as well as examination of surgical specimens with substantial focus on the study of normal anatomy and possible variations thereof. The monumental exercise that Gray undertook over a considerable period of time is evident across the pages of the text that served as the very basis of medical science for generations to come. / The phenomenal success of Gray's text can be attributed to a large extent to the excellence of its illustrations. The drawings used in the text were prepared by Henry Vandyke Carter (1831-1897). When Gray began work on his text, Carter was working as a demonstrator of anatomy at St. George's Hospital Medical school where Gray was his senior and serving as a lecturer. Both Carter and Gray had similar interest and soon became good friends. Gray relied to a great extent on Carter to assist him with the dissections also to prepare the large number of illustrations required for the text. Continuing with the 'lack of style' approach introduced by John and Charles Bell, Carter restrained himself from any attempt to place the figures in graceful poses or against unrealistic/whimsical backgrounds. The use of life size views of the human was consciously avoided and even a complete skeleton was not depicted anywhere in the text. Carter's illustrations were aimed at scientific description of the anatomical structures and the core value of these well-prepared wood engravings was the illustrative clarity which was remarkably atypical in relation to that period. In those days, illustrations in anatomy texts were typically proxy labelled, whereby the reader had to refer to the key which was usually provided in the footnote. The illustrations used in Gray's Anatomy contrastingly represented unified nomenclature and structures which enabled the reader to assimilate both simultaneously. Carter's work ensured that throughout the text the focus remain on the anatomical details and this was in accordance to Gray's dream to provide visual descriptions in anatomy that would be useful for aspiring surgeons and clinicians. The completed manuscript and illustrations for Gray's Anatomy were forwarded to the publishers John W Parker & Sons towards the end of 1857. When the book was eventually published a year later, Gray and Carter were not able to celebrate together as Carter had already left for India, where he was appointed as Professor of Anatomy & Physiology at Grant Medical College in Bombay. Within one year of its publication in England, Gray's Anatomy was made available in the United States and the resulting surge in popularity of the text reflected in the sales. Within a short timespan Gray's Anatomy emerged as the most sought-after textbook of anatomy across the English-speaking world. Encouraged by the success of his work, Gray began working on a second edition being assisted by his colleague Timothy Holmes who was also a surgeon. Unfortunately, Gray passed away at a very young age in 1861 due to small pox and could not oversee the completion of his work. This responsibility was ably tendered by Timothy Holmes, who prepared the subsequent seven editions of this masterpiece in anatomy." [Sanjib Kumar Ghosh; Ashutosh Kumar].


PROVENANCE: Charles Evelyn Hagner, M.D., of Washington D.C., gave a paper, "A Case of Hernia of Parturient Uterus through the Linea Alba." Read before the Medical Society of the District of Columbia, October 31, 1888. JAMA. " Dr. Charles H. Smith could not be identified.

First Edition.

There were only 2000 copies of the First Edition.This is an extremely low number of copies.Most copies of the First Edition have likely already been destroyed by use.This is an exceedingly and increasingly difficult book to obtain.There simply are no other copies available for sale.

Gray's Anatomy is one of the most important medical books ever printed.This landmark book is widely regarded as one of the most influential medical books, and it is still in use today.In 1858, Drs. Henry Gray and Henry Vandyke Carter created a book for their surgical colleagues that established an enduring standard among anatomical texts. It is still in print today, and it's value is certain to increase.

Roterodami:: ex officinâ Arnoldi Leers, 1659., 1659. Two parts in one. 15 cm. 12mo. [2], 125, [1] pp. [Complete]. Printer’s woodcut device on title; title margin trimmed. Original paste-paper over boards; simple repairs to spine with old manuscript title added, spine worn, some internal waterstaining to bottom edge. Shelf-mark on p. 1 (lower margin). Title margin trimmed. Good. First edition. Published in two parts, Primerose ?deals with the care of the newborn infant and the feeding of infants,? and the second part is devoted to the problem of infantile diseases and mortality, especially of rickets. ?Primerose was one of those who still regarded the ancient medical writers as the Law and the Prophets, and his book is little more than a compilation from them, mixed with more of ignorant custom and superstition than one can find in any single ancient writer, unless perhaps in Artius; though Primerose, it must be said, does sometimes acknowledge that a custom or opinion mentioned is superstitious.… Read More

VG/VG condition unclipped dust jacket, printed price $12.95 Mr. Rogers appears on the back dj panel wearing a pale blue sweater. "In this book, real life photos are used to help young people feel more comfortable with interacting with other children and making new friends. A Note From Fred Rogers: A child's first visit with a pediatrician usually comes soon after birth. It may be months or even years later, though, that a child first shows fear about going to see a doctor. The worry of an injection or some other unfamiliar medical procedure can trigger that fear. It can also appear because another family member may be feeling medical anxieties. And, of course, new body awareness and needs for privacy develop naturally in children's early years, so all these feelings can make it very hard for them to let doctors investigate the workings of… Read More

ISBN: 0820317713 "Ranging in subject from England's poor laws to the Human Genome Project, The Rhetoric of Eugenics in Anglo-American Thought is one of the first books to look at the history and development of the eugenics movement in Anglo-American culture. Unlike other works that focus on the movement's historical aberrancies or the claims of its hardline proponents, this study highlights the often unnoticed ways in which the language and ideas of eugenics have permeated democratic discourse. Marouf A. Hasian, Jr. not only examines the attempts of philosophers, scientists, and politicians to balance the rights of the individual against the duties of the state, but also shows how African Americans, Catholics, women, and other communities--dominant and marginalized--have appropriated or confronted the rhetoric of eugenics. / Hasian… Read More
