Explore early 20th‑century heart science, from pacing and heart‑block to flutter and fibrillation. This historical medical journal volume gathers pioneering case studies, diagrams, and practical observations on the circulation system, authored by leading researchers of the era.
This edition presents foundational work on how the heart beats, how blocks alter rhythm, and how measurements were recorded long before modern imaging. It features experimental methods, patient cases, and a mix of clinical notes that reveal the evolving study of cardiac function.
- Key essays on the pace‑maker concept and auriculo‑ventricular block
- Case reports detailing heart rhythm disorders and diagnostic techniques
- Early electrocardiography and mechanical tracing applied to human and animal hearts
- Contributions by Thomas Lewis and colleagues, with methodological insights
Ideal for readers with an interest in the history of cardiology, early medical instrumentation, and the evolution of understanding heart rhythm disorders.

Paperback. Etat : New. Print on Demand. This book belongs to the wider field of texts investigating cardiac physiology. At the time of the publication of this book, there was a growing body of research investigating the activity of the heart and this text adds to that knowledge. The author has used innovative techniques to gather data on the human heart, using measurements and graphic methods for recording the organ's movements. The author explores how drugs affect the heart's function and how the organ functions within the human body. By opening the field of investigation to encompass the human heart in vivo rather than relying on animal models, the author has produced insights that would influence the direction of future clinical research and practice.
