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.

1760. London: C. Hitch & L. Hawes, 1760, 8°, XXXII, 182 pp., contemporary calf; ExLibris Eugene S. Flamm; fine copy. First Edition! Signed by Levi Barthlett (1763-1828) and John Thomas !**) "This book, which showed Pott's extensive knowledge of surgical literature, systematized the treatment of head injuries. It shows what a variety of injuries of the head could be sustained even before the advent of the motor-car. Includes the first description of "Pott's puffy tumour". Pott was born in Threadneedle Street, where the Bank of England now stands; he succeeded Cheselden as the greatest surgeon of his day. The book was altered and re-published under a different title in 1768." G&M "I have previously suggested that Percivall Pott (1713-1788), the English surgeon at St. Bartholomew's Hospital from 1736 until 1787, may be considered a central figure in the transition of neurosurgery from a part of general surgery to a specialized discipline in its own right. *) This is based on his writings about… Read More

(Taylor and Walton) (1st. Oct., 1842)), orig. Halbleinenband. 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
