Magisterial three-volume set of catalogues for the famous 3-part Christie's auction in 1998 of the Haskell F. Norman Library of Science and Medicine. Perhaps the finest catalogue series ever published for one of the great collections of rare scientific and medical books. Lavishly illustrated, with incisive commentary on not only the items up for auction, but on the very history of science and medicine. These are no ordinary auction catalogues. Haskell Norman's library contained some of the most important books and ephemera ever published. Perusing these catalogues is a joy for anyone interested in the history of science and medicine - an education in itself! In as new condition with the list of prices realized.
