First Edition. Herschel and South, friends since student days and co-founders of the Royal Astronomical Society (1820), collaborated on double-star research between 1821-23, publishing this catalogue of double (binary) stars in 1824 which earned them the Gold Medal of the Astronomical Society over such competitors as Bessel, Struve and Pond. Herschel would eventually prepare a catalogue of 10,300 double stars, devise important computational methods in relation to double stars, and generally establish double-star astronomy in England.

With: Home, Everard (1756-1832). Observations on certain horny excrescences of the human body. In ibid.: 95-105.

Engraved bookplate of John Douglas, Bishop of Salisbury (1721-1807). First Editions, journal issues. Herschel's paper records his observation in 1790 of the planetary nebula now known as NGC 1514, which caused him to reconsider his hypothesis that all nebulae were in fact star clusters disguised by distance. NGC 1514 "is so close to Earth that William was able to see the central star that in fact is always present in a planetary nebula. Accordingly, William classified the object as a nebulous star. Marveling at what he saw, he…

Pringle, Physician-General to the British Army from 1744 to 1752, was the founder of modern military medicine. His Observations "laid down the true principles of military sanitation and the ventilation of hospital wards. Pringle was one of the pioneers of the antiseptic idea, showed that jail fever and hospital fever are one and the same, did much for the better ventilation of ships, barracks, jails and mines, correlated the different forms of dysentery and gave the name influenza to that dread disease. This work [was] the source-book of all subsequent writers"…

The hand-colored illustrations include a transverse section of a human brain infected with Tenia in…

1828. Blundell, James (1790-1877). Observations on transfusion of blood. In The Lancet 2 (1828-29): 321-24. Wood-engraved illustrations. Contained in an extract from The Lancet 2, no. 302 (June 13, 1828), consisting of pp. 321-336. 224 x 150 (uncut). Disbound. Minor toning but very good. First Edition, journal issue. Blundell, a British obstetrician, was the first to perform a human-to-human blood transfusion in which the patient survived. "Blundell established the most fundamental points in transfusion, including the incompatibility of interspecies transfusion and the method of indirect transfusion. With his descriptions of about ten cases over a ten-year period, Blundell revived interest in blood transfusion after a century-long hiatus" (Garrison-Morton.com 2017). ). The paper's two illustrations show Blundell's "Gravitator," a transfusion apparatus that was used throughout the 19th century. The present extract also includes a summary of Dieffenbach's report on transfusion experiments performed in…

GM 2727 cites Riviere's description of this condition in his Opera medica universa (1674), of which the present work is the first edition; the description appears here on p. 177, and is entitled "Cordis palpitatio & pulsus inaequalitas." Riviere also brought Paracelsian iatrochemistry into the curriculum of the University of Montpellier, and it was under his auspices that Alexander Fraser introduced the Harviean theory of the circulation into the University's…

Whole number. 763-979pp. 268 x 202 mm. Original printed wrappers, vertical crease in back wrapper. Boxed. First Edition, journal issue. Segrè and Chamberlain, colleagues at the University of California, Berkeley, shared the 1959 Nobel Prize in physics for their discovery of the antiproton, a particle with the same mass and spin as the proton but with opposite charge and magnetic moment. Such antiparticles had been predicted in 1928 by Dirac's relativistic theory of the electron, and the first such particle, the positron, had been discovered by C. D. Anderson in 1932. Several rival groups at Berkeley also entered the antiproton hunt, but the Segrè team's experimental ingenuity insured its triumph: "I decided to attack the problem in two ways. One was based on the determination of the charge and mass of the…
