Lyons: In edibus Jacobi Myt, 1521. Hardcover. Very Good. Hardcover. 8vo - over 7¾ - 9¾" tall. 8vo (195 x 135 mm), 2 parts in one volume, both titles with ornamental woodcut borders and the first printed in red and black, double-column text with woodcut initials, three unnumbered index leaves at end of first work (with printer's woodcut device after colophon), the second work lacking final leaf of text, supplied in old (16th century) neat facsimile manuscript, verso blank and three leaves of index, some spotting and browning, foremargins of first few leaves a little chipped with trivial loss to one side-note on a2v, modern half morocco over marbled boards, a little rubbed, faint ink stamps. --- Adams V762 - Wellcome I, 6614 (ed. 1531) - Heirs of Hipp. 154 (ed. 1525). - not in Norman or G.-M., no copy in JbdAPr u. ABPC. -Though reprinted numerous times, copies of early editions of Vigo's surgery are uncommon. Vigo's "Chirurgia" consists of nine books ranging from a consideration of anatomy necessary for a surgeon, to sections on abscesses, wounds, ulcers, benign and malignant tumors, fractures and dislocations, pharmaceuticals, ointments and plasters, as well as sections on dentistry, exercise, diet, syphilis, among others. De Vigo introduces a novel approach for treating mandible dislocations and describes a trephine he invented, as well as a number of new instruments. Examination of his surgical piece demonstrates that he had a broad spectrum of knowledge in surgery based in part on the ancient Greek and Arabic medical literature but mainly on his personal experience. Giovanni de Vigo contributed significantly to the revival of medicine in the sixteenth century, and he can be considered as a bridge between Greek medicine of antiquity, Arabic medicine, and the Renaissance. (Surgical history). The second part was written by Mariano Santo, a student of Vigo who achieved great fame through his introduction of the "Marian operation" of lithotomy.

"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.
