Item description from seller

An extremely rare, mid 17th century edition of Riolan’s Anatomical and Pathological Encheiridium, in which, from the natural constitution of the parts, the departure from the natural state is demonstrated. A textbook that contains systematic explanations and definitions of basic and morbid anatomy, Riolan’s work was made more notable since its rejection of some of William Harvey's ideas on blood circulation prompted Harvey to reply with his Exercitationes duae anatomicae de circulatione sanguinis ad Joannem Riolanum (1649), the only published answer he ever issued to criticisms of De motu cordis. There is a rather extensive note enclosed from one Dr. Jean Manet, whose staggering medical library was sold publicly in recent years, among which included a first edition Vesalius and more. USTC records 3 existing copies of this edition in libraries. One finely bound volume in small quarto, (32)+610+(64) pages This volume is in good shape, with rubbing and wear to the binding, and the front hinge cracked. There is foxing and staining throughout.
