A propos de cet article

Author: H. Vaquez and E. Bordet Full Title: The Heart and the Aorta: Studies in Clinical Radiology Edition/Printing: First English Edition, translated from the Second French Edition. Published in 1920. Binding style and materials: Hardcover, bound in tan cloth over boards. Titles, authors, and publisher are printed in black on the spine. The Yale University Press device is present on the spine and title page. Notable features: This landmark medical text applies the then-emerging science of radiology to the diagnosis and study of cardiac and aortic conditions. It is noteworthy for its inclusion of a section on "Localization of War Projectiles in Heart and Pericardium," reflecting the immediate post-WWI context and the practical application of radiography to battlefield injuries. The work was published under the esteemed Williams Memorial Publication Fund. The volume contains 181 illustrations, including detailed line drawings, anatomical diagrams, tables, and black-and-white radiographic (X-ray) plates. Historical & Collectible Context: Henri Vaquez (1860-1936) was a prominent French cardiologist, celebrated for his pioneering work and clinical contributions, including the description of Polycythemia vera (Vaquez's disease). His collaboration with Étienne Bordet produced foundational texts in early cardiology. This specific work, published by the prestigious Yale University Press, represents an early and significant treatise on the clinical application of radiology to the heart and aorta. The inclusion of topics like the localization of war projectiles highlights the era's medical advancements and the practical application of diagnostic tools during and after major conflicts. This volume is a critical piece for collectors interested in the history of medicine, cardiology, radiology, and the impact of early 20th-century warfare on medical science.

The front board has minor creasing and staining. Board edges are rubbed, with wear at the corners. The binding is firm. The hinges are strong. Interior - Pages are clean and crisp.…
