Description:
1779 Causes of Disease Italian Morgagni Pathology Medicine Human Anatomy RAREGiovanni Battista Morgagni was an Italian anatomist whose studies on pathology lead him to publishing one of the most renowned works on the subject – 'Causes of Diseases' (1761). This book established fundamental principles of disease origination and dispersal. Garrison and Morton's account of this book should not be overlooked."one of the most important of the history of medicine, Morgagni was the true founder of modern pathological anatomy. The work consists of a series of 70 letters reporting about 700 cases and necropsies. As best he could, he correlated the clinical record with the post-mortem finding. Morgagni gave the first descriptions of several pathological conditions."Item number: #5196 Price: $750MORGAGNI, GiambattistaJo. Baptista Morgagni P.P.P.P.
