Five offprints, one periodical containing six articles, and three monographs, all bound together. B&W and color plates, original front wraps retained where issued. Varia pagination. Octavo in half red cloth over marbled boards, gilt spine title (which reads "Albert H. du Bois - Systeme Reticulo Endothelial"). Light rubbing to boards, extremities exposed, corners softened and exposed, occasional edgewear to leaves, toning to some works. Dr. Paul Chevallier (1884-1960) was a pioneering hematologist in interwar France. In 1931, he founded the Societe Francaise d Hematologie, the first learned society devoted to blood disorders. Three of the works contained herein are inscribed to him (the monographs by Du Bois and Pimpaneau, and the article by di Guglielmo). The term 'reticuloendothelial system', or RES, is a physiological categorization first put forth by Dr. Ludwig Aschoff in 1922. Today the preferred term is 'mononuclear phagocyte system,' although new discoveries and shifting terminology leave room for debate as to whether the two terms reference the same thing. Aschoff's 1925 article "Morphologie des Retikulo-Endothelialen Systems" leads off this collection. Dated works span 1926-1945. Texts in French, German, and Italian.
