The Circulation of the Blood and Other Writings (Everyman Library)
Description:
Milestones in the history of science, Harvey's discovery of the circulatory nature of blood flow and function of the heart released medical science from prevailing classical theory and paved the way for an exact anatomical science. He maintains, nonetheless, the traditional view of Nature's ultimate purpose and warned against reducing life by materialism. This volume also includes translations of The Anatomy of Thomas Parr (1635) by Arnold Muirhead, and Harvey's Last Will and Testament.
