ANATOMY -- MORGAGNI, G.B. De sedibus, et causis morborum per anatomen indagatis libri V. Ed. 2a. Padua, Sumpt. Remondinianis, 1765. 2 in 1 vol. lxxxiv, 256; 388 pp. W. engr. front portr. of the author. Lge-fol. Mod. vellum. (Outer lower corner of first 10 lvs. rep./restored, some traces of use, some minor foxing, but altog. a v.g. copy).
Important work by an author who may be considered as the founder of pathological anatomy. DSB IX, p. 511-2: "(…) the special merit of M.'s work lies in its synthesis of case materials with the insights provided by his own anatomical investigations. In his book Morgagni made careful evaluations of antatomic-medical histories drawn exhaustively from the existing literature. (…) The case histories collected in 'De sedibus' (…) represent the work of an entire school of anatomists, beginning with Malpighi, then extending through his pupils Valsalva and Albertini to Morgagni himself".€ 300
