The volume traces Malpighiâs groundbreaking observations on chick development and organ structure, placing his work within the broader rise of microscopy and early modern experimental science. Drawing on historical analysis and primary sources, it explores how his research challenged prevailing theories of generation and helped lay foundations for modern embryology and histology. --- Published by Cornell University Press in 1966, this five-volume scholarly work by Howard B. Adelmann examines the life and scientific contributions of the Italian physician and microscopist Marcello Malpighi (1628-1694), situating his embryological research within the broader development of the discipline from antiquity through the seventeenth century. The set reproduces Malpighi's treatises on chick development, including De formatione pulli in ovo and the Appendix containing his further observations on the incubated egg, presented in the original Latin alongside English translations. Adelmann supplements the texts with extensive commentary, illustrations, and a bibliography tracing the history of embryological thought.
