BERNARD (Claude). Introduction to the study of experimental - Lot 255
BERNARD (Claude). Introduction to the study of experimental medicine. Paris, J. B. Baillière et fils; London, Madrid, 1865. In-8, paperback, partly uncut, Devauchelle folder and slipcase.
Garrison & Morton, n°1766.501. - Heirs of Hippocrates, n°1797. - PMM, 353.
First edition of the founding text of the modern medical scientific method.
Concise and luminously clear, [...] this book marks a turning point in the history of science. In it, Bernard exposes and dissects "experimental reasoning", and enshrines the notions of internal environment and biological determinism (En français dans le texte, n°288).
Without the catalog of medical books published by Baillière et fils (48 pages).
Slight foxing. Minor restorations to the jaws of the cover, which remains fragile.
