‎---- EDITION ORIGINALE ---- BEL EXEMPLAIRE ---- "A classical and a standard work in neurology for Nerfs de la vie organique in Traité d'anatomie descriptive, tome V". (MacHenry) ---- GARRISON N° 404 et 1315 : "Bichat revolutionized descriptive anatomy. Where Morgagni and others had conceived of whole organs being diseased, Bichat showed how individual tissues could be separately affected... Traité d'anatomie descriptive and Anatomie générale are remarkable in their total reliance on verbal description to convey anatomical detail, since neither work contains a single illustration. He was the creator of descriptive anatomy. He introduced the terms 'animal' and 'vegetative' system" ---- Heirs of Hippocrates N° 1258 - DSB II - Haymaker**546/b4+553/cart.1‎
