"During the first decade of his research career (1857-1867) Marey applied the technique of graphical recording to the study of the mechanics and hydraulics of the circulatory system, the heart beat, respiration, and muscle contraction in general. He analyzed the circulatory and muscular systems in terms of the physical variables, elasticity, resistance, and tonicity. With the graphical trace he established the relationship of heart rate and blood pressure, thus supplementing previous studies of the value of blood pressure in a vessel with traces of its waveform" (D.S.B. 9: 101). "The book includes the first graphic records of the pulse, and for it Marey was awarded a medical prize in 1864 by the Academy of Sciences" (LeFanu, Notable Medical Books from the Lilly Library, p. 221).
