Condition: Good. Large folio. 36 x 52.5cm. Later qtr. gilt goatskin and marbled boards with matching slipcase in very good condition. Pages fresh with no foxing. 2 marginal tears without loss. Ownership inscription on endpaper: A.J. Peffer, 1834.With engraved title and 113 of 114 copper plates. Plates numbered 1-105 and App. 1- 9. Lacking plate 3. First Latin edition. - Adaptation of the highly impressive and detailed anatomical plates first published by the Dutch surgeon Govard Bidloo (1649-1713). Bidloo had already published his Anatomia Humani Corporis in Amsterdam in 1685; the illustrations were based on drawings by Gerard de Lairesse (1640-1711). Sales, however, were apparently quite slow, and much to Bidloo's displeasure, Cowper (1666-1709) acquired 300 complete sets of the plates from the publisher. He published these, along with a new text, under a new title and under his own name. His own contribution to the pictorial program consisted only of nine additional plates on myology, which he had drawn by Henry Cook (1642-1700) and engraved by Michiel van der Gucht (1660-1725)..References: Choulant 95 - Wellcome II, 401 - cf.

Leaf B1 signed A2Title page printed in red and blackEngraved title vignetteThe first 105 plates and the added engraved title page, all drawn by Gérard de Lairesse and engraved by Peter and Philip Van Gunst, gave rise to a controversy with Govard Bidloo as to Cowper's use of these plates from Bidloo's 1685 Anatomia humani corporis. The 9 final plates added by Cowper were drawn by Henry Cook and engraved by Michael van der Gucht.

We have seen two states for this work. Some copies have the folding plates laid on linen so the tops and bottoms of the plates are together. In others, like this copy, the leaves were never brought together to unite the portions of the plates, so a bit of flipping and letter-hunting is necessary to correlate the images with the explanations when identifying structures. Alexander Monro Secundus (1733 1817) is generally regarded as the greatest of the three Alexander Monros (they held, in turn, the Chair of Anatomy at Edinburgh from 1720 to 1846 (Thornton, 1966). Secundus studied under his father, Primus, as well as Hunter, Albinus, and Meckel the Elder. Indeed, it was Albinus who named the bursae mucosae (Heirs of Hippocrates 634 and 635). Secundus is the one who is credited with the discovery of the eponymous Foramen of Monro in the brain (see Garrison Morton 1385, and Waller. 6645 and 6646).

First Edition, folio (470 x 290 mm), [5], 6-60pp., 10 engraved plates (4 folding on 2 sheets joined) after A. Fyfe and Thomas Donaldson, plates II and III with short tears not touching the image, plate V a little creased with short closed tears, nineteenth-century half calf, rubbed, covers detached. This was "The first serious study of this subject and the most original anatomical work by the greatest of the Monro dynasty." It contains the first full anatomical description of the sacs between the tendons and bones which Albinus had named the bursae mucosae. They are illustrated on the ten plates "which for explicit clarity and accuracy have not been improved upon." (Heirs of Hippocrates 1011). The plates depict the foot, various joints including the knee and hip, and four of the plates are life-sized representations of the entire arm and leg. Monro secundus' earlier publications were largely polemical, and it was not until he had been teaching for twenty-five years that his three main contributions to medical literature appeared. Monro's Observations on the Structure and Functions of the Nervous System (Edinburgh, 1783), a massive text and atlas on human and comparative neurology, is Monro's greatest work. His Description of All the Bursae Mucosae of the Human Body. was a practical manual for direct use in surgery. Although next to nothing was known of germ life at that time, Monro's acute observation and independent empirical judgement led him to the conclusion that the chief danger of infection in surgery of joints lay in exposure to the air.
