Description:
London: Elsevier, 1867. First Edition. Hardcover. very good. 2 vols. 1st edition (the 1st appearances anywhere). Contemporary cloth, short splits at the base of the joints neatly closed, library blind stamps on the title pages, else very good.

[3] Vol. II also has Lister's 2nd article, On the Antiseptic Principle in the Practice of Surgery, pages 353-356, and [4] his 3rd article, The Antiseptic System of Treatment..., pages 668-669, cumulatively changing surgery, the lives of those practicing it, and those undergoing it, to this day, and there is universal reverence for the magnitude of this medical divination. Rare. Refs: PMM, 316c (the 1st 5-part article). Grolier,…

London: Thomas Bennet and Daniel Brown, 1699. First Edition. Hardcover. Near fine. 1st edition. Tyson's groundbreaking treatise, the first significant study in post-renaissance comparative morphology, the forerunner of all the science that connected man to his earlier ancestors, and the underpinning for Huxley's Man's Place in Nature (1863) and Darwin's Descent of Man (1871). It is in this book that Tyson established a new family of anthropoid apes standing between monkey and man, and though the results he deduced from his anatomical descriptions proved misguided, he was the first to recognize that man was a close relative of certain lower animals. Tyson did not foresee the theory of evolution, but this work stimulated others to ponder the possibility over the next 160 years, and thus contributed meaningfully to its formulation. Full dark red morocco, signed in gilt on the front inner dentelle by Sangorski (typically plain binding, as was Sangorski's custom on science books), title page foxed and…
