Title: A Clinical Treatise on Diseases of the Liver, translated by Charles Murchison
Author: Frerichs, Friedrich T.
Seller: Biomed Rare Books LLC, ABAA, ILAB (United States)
Description: New York: W. M. Wood & Co., 1879. First American edition. 1879 FIRST AMERICAN EDITION 3-VOLUME TREATISE ON DISEASES OF THE LIVER BY NOTED GERMAN PATHOLOGIST. Three 9 1/4 inches tall hardcover volumes, original publisher's brown blindstamped cloth, spines gilt, xxvi, 224; viii, 228; viii, 246 pages. Corners lightly bumped, small paper library labels bottom of spines, armorial book-plate of Dartmouth College Library, "Presented by Charles Bell Converse, M.A., M.D., of the class of 1863" (with "discard" handstamp) with no markings in text. Color frontis vols 1 and 2, uncolored in vol 3. Numerous wood engravings throughout each volume. FRIEDRICH THEODOR VON FRERICHS (1819 - 1885) was a German pathologist. In 1859 he succeeded Johann Lukas Schönlein as head physician at the Charité in Berlin. He remained at the Charité until his death in 1885. Some of his better known assistants and students included Paul Ehrlich (1854-1915), Adolf Weil (1848-1916), Paul Langerhans (1847-1888), Bernhard Naunyn (1839-1925), Heinrich Irenaeus Quincke (1842-1922), Friedrich Albin Hoffmann (1843-1924), Wilhelm Ebstein (1836-1912) and Hugo Rühle (1824-1888). Frerichs made many contributions to medical science, and is especially known for his research of kidney and liver diseases. Frerichs gave the first clinical description of progressive familial hepatolenticular degeneration (now known as Wilson's disease), and also discovered the presence of leucine and tyrosine in urine involving yellow atrophy of the liver. He also described the anatomical changes that place in liver cirrhosis and malaria perniciosa. GARRISON-MORTON No, 3620 [original German edition, 1858-61]: Frerichs's classic monograph on diseases of the liver summarized the existing knowledge and included his own important work on the subject. He discovered leucine and tyrosine in the liver in acute yellow atrophy (Dtsch. Klin., 1855, 7, 341-43), a condition to which he devoted much study. Frerichs was Professor of Pathology at Berlin and enjoyed a great reputation; more than any other manhe was responsible for the development of scientific teaching in Germany. PROVENANCE: CHARLES BELL CONVERSE (1842-1912) entered Dartmouth College with the class of 1863, the war fever swept him into the Union Army. He subsequently graduated from Georgetown Medical College and practiced medicine in Hudson County, NJ.
