SIBSON (FRANCIS)

Medical Anatomy: or, Illustrations of the Relative Position and Movments of the Internal Organs, first edition, 21 partially hand-coloured lithographed plates by William Fairland, one near loose, early half morocco, rubbed [Garrison-Morton 422; Eimas 1814], folio, John Churchill, 1869

Footnotes

"The anatomical relationships of the organs, their range of motion, and especially the effects of respiration and cardiac pulsation are described in a unique manner... a final commentary on the structure, movements, and sounds of the heart reveals an accuracy far beyond anything that had yet been published in anatomical works" (Eimar).
