Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: If the pulsations of the arteries fan and refrigerate the several parts of the body as the lungs do the heart, how comes it, as is commonly said, that the arteries carry the vital blood into the different parts, abundantly charged with vital spirits, which cherish the heat of these parts, sustain them when asleep, and recruit them when exhausted? and how should it happen that, if you tie the arteries, immediately the parts not only become torpid, and frigid, and look pale, but at length cease even to be nourished?-from the IntroductionThis seminal work of medical literature, first published in 1628, spells out in clear, lucid language how the human heart pumps blood around the body via its own exclusive circulatory route. What seems like an obvious concept to us today was in fact quite revolutionary at the time: Harvey's defiance of the medical "common knowledge" of his time laid the groundwork for all modern investigations of the circulatory system, and may be the most momentous discovery of 17th-century medicine.This important volume also includes a series of letters from Harvey to his medical colleagues in which he defends his then-astonishing theories, plus Harvey's "The Anatomy of Thomas Parr," a fascinating 1635 report on the dissection of the corpse of "a poor farmer of extremely advanced age."OF INTEREST TO: readers of scientific history, medical studentsBritish naturalist, anatomist, and doctor WILLIAM HARVEY (1578-1657) was educated at Cambridge, Canterbury, and Padua, and became a Fellow of the Royal College of Physicians in 1607. He served as court physician to both King James I and King Charles I.

Book excerpt: During his medical career, Harvey focused much of his research on the mechanics of blood flow in the human body. Most physicians of the 17th-century considered lungs responsible for moving the blood throughout the body. Harvey's famous "Exercitatio Anatomica de Motu Cordis et Sanguinis in Animalibus" commonly was published in Latin at Frankfurt in 1628. At that time, Harvey was 50 years old. The first English translation appeared two decades later. Observing the functioning of the heart in living animals, he was able to see that systole was the active phase of the heart's movement, pumping out the blood by its muscular contraction. Then he saw that the valves in the veins permit the blood to flow only in the direction of the heart and to prove that the blood circulated around the body and returned to the heart.

RECENT HISTORIANS OF THE DISCOVERY OF THE CIRCULATION OF THE BLOOD. My work would be incomplete were I not to conclude with a notice of some at least of my predecessors, historians of the Circulation, critics and advocates of one or another to whom the discovery has been ascribed. In exposing the views of the great anatomists of former times from their works, I have referred incidentally oftener than once to recent writers who believe that in these they detect a knowledge more or less complete of the Circulation. Among the most persistent of all in his advocacy of the claims of Hippocrates to such distinction is Jo. Ant. van der Linden, professor of medicine in the University of Leyden. In a series of no fewer than twenty-seven dissertations published under the names of his students on taking their medical degrees,1 he has brought together and given his own interpretation to every passage in the writings of the Father of Physic which he thinks bears upon the question in 1 Jo. Ant. van der Linden. Hippocrates. de Circuitu Sanguinis, Dissertationes xxvii. Lugd. Batav., 1659-63. 4to. hand. But I have said enough under the head of Hippocrates on the learned professor's lucubrations to make it unnecessary for me to take up the subject at any length in this place. I only add, that Van der Linden is totally opposed to Harvey's title to be accounted the discoverer of the Circulation of the Blood. Advocate as he is of Hippocrates, however, he would not have him enriched to the extent of making every one who came after him his debtor. Harvey had not to go so far back as the days of the Coan Sage for his knowledge. Van der Linden informs us seriously, that " he had been told by the learned Dr. Nicholas Oudart that he--Oudart--remembers...
