A propos de cet article

A Monument of 18th-Century Anatomical Inquiry. This premium facsimile edition reproduces the definitive 1797 work of Alexander Monro 'Secundus', one of the most distinguished figures of the Edinburgh Medical School. Monro was the first to describe the 'foramen of Monro' and his treatises on the sensory organs remain foundational to the history of neurology and ophthalmology. This edition, part of the Gryphon Classics of Ophthalmology Library, is presented in a luxurious full-leather binding, designed for both the scholar’s shelf and the bibliophile’s collection. KEY FEATURES +++ Limited Edition: Number 407 of a limited printing of 5000 copies, featuring a personalized bookplate. +++ Binding: Full rich leather with four raised spine bands, intricate gilt-tooled spine compartments, and all edges gilt (AEG). +++ Illustrations: Complete with all original illustrations and several large fold-out plates, meticulously reproduced on heavy archival-quality paper stock. +++ Interior: Features vibrant marbled endpapers and a clean, square text block. +++ Format: An imposing 11-inch tall quarto; 264 pages. CONDITION: Fine -- No Flaws or Blemishes. This copy is in gift quality condition, exhibiting no shelf wear, rubbing to the leather, or interior markings. The gilt remains bright and the binding is tight and unread. HISTORICAL SIGNIFICANCE -- Alexander Monro 'Secundus' (1733–1817) occupied the Chair of Anatomy at the University of Edinburgh for forty years. His work on the brain and the nervous system provided the first accurate descriptions of the interventricular foramen. These treatises represent the apex of 18th-century medical illustration and clinical observation, bridging the gap between early anatomical sketches and modern surgical science. SUBJECTS: History of Medicine, Ophthalmology, Neurology, 18th Century Anatomy, Edinburgh Medical School, Limited Edition, Fine Bindings, Facsimile Editions, Medical Classics.…
