AI-assisted summary

Description from the seller

Du Monchaux, Pierre-Antoine. Anecdotes of medicine, or Selection of singular facts related to anatomy, pharmacy, natural history, etc., to which are added anecdotes concerning the most renowned doctors.

Complete in two volumes.

Lille, J.-B. Henry printer-bookseller. 1766. Small octavo. IX + 312 pages; 309 pages. Full calf binding in havana color, with richly decorated spine featuring five raised bands and red maroquin title pieces (volume number pieces missing). Cold framing on the covers.

Second and final augmented edition of this collection. The works are generally in good condition, aside from some rubbing on the edges and more significant wear on the spines with minor loss, a few scratches, and missing parts of the pagination.

Compilation of singular traits and facts drawn from authors who judged it appropriate to write about them in Latin and only for learned people.

This rare book is certainly not very useful for medical practice, but it offers a pleasant relaxation for practitioners and curious readers...
