About This Item
Chez Gabon et Cie, libraires, place de l'Ecole de meÌdecine, Brosson, imprimeur-libraire, rue Pierre-Sarrazin, no. 7, A Paris, 1801. First Edition. Hardcover. Acceptable. [Medical Anatomy] 4 volume set. Bound in contemporary marbled boards. Lacking spine leather. Contents: Volume 1: xxxii, 464; vol. 2: vi, 624; vol. 3: xxviii, 461; vol. 4: xxiv, 496. Garrison-Morton 404; Heirs of Hippocrates 1258. "First edition of Bichat's last great work, the last three volumes of which appeared posthumously. The author died of tuberculosis at the age of 31, having finished the first two volumes and much of the third. M.F.R. Buisson completed vol. 3 and wrote vol. 4. Bichat revolutionized descriptive anatomy. This final work is remarkable for its total reliance on verbal description to convey anatomical detail and contains not a single illustration." - Christies, 2004.
