De motu cordis " is probably the most important book in the history of medicine . The first edition of Harvey's little book has become one of the greatest rarities. It was printed on poor paper and almost always badly bound. Even the later editions are scarce. Although this is actually the third edition of 'De motu cordis', it is only the second complete edition. The second edition of 1635 was lacking parts of the introduction, chapters One and Sixteen, and the plates. In this edition, the text of Harvey's treatise is printed passage by passage alternatively with the refutations of Emilio Parisano, one of Harvey's many opponents. Bound with : - REGIUS, Henricus.
