Contact seller5-star sellerFirst edition. This rare first edition of Allouelâs Explication des Mots dâUsage en Anatomie et en Chirurgie (Paris, 1776) is an important 18th-century medical reference work designed to clarify anatomical and surgical terminology for students and practitioners. Structured as both a glossary and instructional manual, the work ex…plains the etymology, meaning, and proper application of technical medical terms, while also providing broader discussions of anatomy, pathology, surgical procedures, and therapeutic treatments. Sections include osteology, myology, splanchnology, neurology, and surgical instruments, as well as discussions of diseases, operations, and medications. The work reflects the Enlightenment emphasis on systematizing scientific knowledge and improving surgical education Written for surgical students (âAux Ãlà ves en Chirurgieâ), the book represents an instructional bridge between academic anatomical theory and practical surgical training. Its etymological approach to terminology is particularly notable, helping practitioners understand the linguistic roots of medical vocabulary derived from Greek and Latin. Such manuals were essential tools in the professionalization of surgery during the 18th century, when surgeons increasingly distinguished themselves from barber-surgeons and sought formal academic standing. This is a very rare work unknown to WorldCat. Condition & Binding:ÂBound in contemporary full calf, spine gilt in compartments with decorative floral tools and gilt titling (âMots dâUsage de Chirurgieâ). Boards show moderate rubbing, scuffing, and surface wear consistent with age, with some spotting and discoloration to the leather. Spine remains structurally sound and attractive, with clear gilt decoration. Interior generally clean with moderate age toning, occasional light foxing, and minor edge wear. Overall- very good.
