Beschreibung

12mo; Engraved title page; [22],543,[35]. In an attractive modern binding of half calf, marbled sides, raised bands to the spinem small floret ornaments in compartments, two lettering pieces, red and brown leather. A Very Good copy indeed. With the old ownership inscription of Robert Travers. From a small collection of other medical books I have had from Travers' library I know him to be the Robert Travers, Surgeon, of Trinity College Dublin. *** Paul Barbette (5 February 1620, Strasbourg[1] 1666?, Amsterdam) was a celebrated Dutch physician. After finishing his medicine studies at Leiden University in 1645, he practised both medicine and surgery in Amsterdam. He was a determined enemy of bleeding in all cases, relying chiefly on sudorifics. He proposed the operation of gastrostomy in cases of intussusception of the bowels, and introduced some improvements in surgical instruments.He wrote many works, which have been frequently reprinted, and he was held as a high authority in his day. His writings, however, contain little that is original, but they display much learning and acquaintance with his profession. They are in Dutch and Latin, and have been collected in Opera omnia medica et chirurgica (Amsterdam, 1672, 8 volumes), which was translated in Italian, German, French, and English. (Wiki).
