Description
London: J Callow, 1815. First Edition.. Original blue paste paper boards and paper label.. Very good; number removed from a corner of the front board; old inst. stamp on title; untrimmed; unopened; hinges strained.. 8vo, ix, [x – errata], [1] – 113, [114 – plate explanations] pp. + two engraved plates. A little known work by this important military surgeon. Copeland served in Spain and returned to England to an appointment as surgeon at the Westminster General Disp.. He wrote an important book on rectal surgery and was responsible for the development of a new instrument for the removal of the septum narium. The book offered here is a remarkable supplement to Pott's treatise on the topic. It is Copeland's object to diagnose the ailment in its earliest stages, before disease of the bone and paralysis, and therefore try and avoid the worst consequences. Copeland is aware of the limited understanding of the disease and proffers his book as means to alert the physicians about what might be done. He has gone through the medical literature and periodical articles of other physicians to supplement his own observations on the earliest stages of the disease. DNB IV, 1093.
