Hardcover. Condition: Very Good. [Interesting provenance, previously owned by Henry Barton Jacobs, then later by noted medical scholar Owen Hannaway.] Bound in red leather over marbled boards. Marbled end pages. Hardcover. French text. Good binding and cover. Aged wear. Bookplate of Jacobs on verso. Guy Patin was a French physician who first documented FOP, or fibrodysplasia ossificans progressiva, a disease wherein bones grow in connective tissue. In 1692, a patient with what is now known as FOP went to Patin, who recorded the encounter in his writings. Leader of the Paris medical community, Patin was outspoken in his opposition to the social-service programs administered by Theophraste Renaudot. Henry Barton Jacobs was an educator and physician from Maryland. Jacobs came to Baltimore to become the private physician for Robert Garrett, who was then president of the Baltimore and Ohio Railroad. After Garrett's death in 1896, Jacobs joined the faculty of the Johns Hopkins University School of Medicine, retiring in 1905. He actively participated in organizations directed toward the treatment and eradication of tuberculosis. In 1911, Jacobs was elected a trustee of The Johns Hopkins Hospital, a position he held until his death. William Osler was considered a universal friend by physicians of his era but, as with most people, his intimate friends were few. Henry Barton Jacobs became a close friend as one of the 'latchkeyers' who lived next door to the Oslers in Baltimore, and the friendship intensified after Jacobs married Mary Sloan Frick Garrett, the fabulously wealthy widow of a former patient. The couples stayed close after the Oslers moved to Oxford, vacationing together and corresponding frequently. The couple friendship between the Oslers and the Jacobses benefited American medicine in specific ways, including the care of patients with tuberculosis and the care of children. From the library Dr. Owen Hannaway. Hannaway was director of the Center for the History and Philosophy of Science at Johns Hopkins University. He authored numerous books and served as an editor of academic magazines in the history of science.
