Description
Glasgow: Wardlaw & Cunninghame, 1824. Second Enlarged Edition (UK prtg.).. Original blue paste paper boards and paper label.. Good; spine abraded; covers loose.. 8vo, 4 (adverts dated Feb., 1824), [4], xxix, [1 - blank], [31] - 510, [2 - plate list] pp. + 10 plates. The second enlarged edition edited by Granville Pattison who was professor of anatomy at the Univ. of Maryland in America. Pattison was a student of Burns in Edinburgh. The two men were on friendly terms and after Burns' early death Pattison took over his copyrights, business, and lectureship at the College Street medical School. This edition is enlarged by appx. 100 pages; probably issued subsequent to the American edition of a year prior when Pattison was still resident in Baltimore. Burns was a noted anatomist. This book is similar to that of Morgagni's great treatise in that it attempts to correlate pathological signs to specific diseases. The illustrations are specific. An important book in cardiology (see Bedford's comments in his catalog) and most uncommon in the original boards as issued. See G - M # 405 & #3055; Goldschmid, p. 113; see the Pattison biography.
