Folio with brown cloth boards and black titling on the spine. Comes with a black slipcase. Reproduction from the first English edition in 1634, translated from Latin originally by Thomas Johnson. A fascinating collection of writings from Ambroise Pare, a French barber-surgeon who is considered one of the fathers of surgery and modern forensic pathology, as well a pioneer in battlefield medicine, anatomy, and inventor of medical equipment - such as the "Bec de Corbeau" a precursor to the modern day hemostats. The condition of the book is Very Good (binding tight despite the size; little to no shelf wear; little to no interior damage; some pages remain uncut towards the back of the book; the titling on the spine has some light fading, notably a the tail of the spine). The condition of the slipcase is Good+ (edges have been reinforced with tape; scuffing revealing the cardboard underneath at the top edges of the case; otherwise sturdy). 1173+30pgs. This is a rather heavy text and would likely require extra shipping charges.…

Statutory right to withdraw
You have the right to withdraw from this contract within 14 days without giving any reason.

Effects of withdrawal
If you withdraw from this contract, we will reimburse to you all payments received from you, including the costs of delivery (except for the supplementary costs arising if you chose a type of delivery other than the least expensive type of standard delivery offered by us).
We may make a deduction from the reimbursement for loss in value of any goods supplied, if the loss is the result of unnecessary handling by you.
We will make the reimbursement without undue delay, and not later than 14 days after the day on which we are informed about your decision to withdraw from this contract.
We will make the reimbursement using the same means of payment as you used for the initial transaction, unless you have expressly agreed otherwise; in any event, you will not incur any fees as a result of such reimbursement.

The deadline is met if you send back the goods before the period of 14 days has expired. You will have to bear the direct cost of returning the goods. You are only liable for any diminished value of the goods resulting from the handling other than what is necessary to establish the nature, characteristics and functioning of the goods.
Exceptions to the right of withdrawal
The right of withdrawal does not apply to:
- The delivery of newspapers, journals or magazines with the exception of subscription contracts; and
- The supply of digital content which is not supplied on a tangible medium (e.g. on a CD or DVD) if you accepted when you placed your order that we could start to deliver it, and that you could not withdraw once delivery had started.
