Couverture rigide. Etat : Très bon. Edition originale. Grand et fort in-8° relié demi-chagrin de l'époque, coins légèrement tassés, XVI, 872 pages., dos à nerfs orné de fil. à froid, WALLER 2608. GARRISSON-MORTON 624. Edition originale. Travail monumental, résultat de vingt ans d'étude de la stimulation électro musculaire pour déterminer l'action appropriée que les muscles possèdent. Le livre contient un excellent dossier de la kinésiologie de l'ensemble du système musculaire. (G-M). Duchenne de Boulogne was a pioneering French neurologist and one of the greatest clinicians of his day. He was the first to describe several nervous and muscular disorders and, in developing medical treatment for them, created electrodiagnosis and electrotherapy. He also invented an instrument to sample tissues inside the body, founding the diagnostic practice of biopsy. Duchenne summarized his work in two major treatises. His book Mecanisme de la Physionomie Humaine ou Analyse Electro-Physiologique de L'Expression des Passions (translated as The Electrical Stimulation of Muscles for Facial Expression) illustrated with photographs is considered a true incunabulum of photography and copies sell for up to $20,000. This other major work of Duchenne's (modern translation titled Physiology of Motion) appears to be even scarcer.

This other major work of Duchenne's (modern translation titled Physiology of Motion) appears to be even scarcer. Expertly re-backed with what appears to be the original spine and gilt titled label. Hinges neatly repaired, some light scattered foxing mainly to early and late pages. The text is clean and bright. A nice copy of a scarce work.

Couverture rigide. Etat : Bon. first edition. In-8 (214 x 135 mm) de XVI, 872 pp. et 1 f.n.ch. Demi-maroquin noir (reliure de l'époque). Garrison-Morton, 624 ; Norman, 660.Édition originale."A monumental work" (Garrison-Morton).Illustré de 101 figures dans le texte. Duchenne a étudié l'action de chaque muscle pris séparément, puis l'action conjuguée de groupes de muscles, la réaction à la stimulation électrique chez un individu sain et chez des personnes présentant divers types de paralysies."This conception of multiple participation of muscles is apparently Duchenne's great contribution to the physiology of muscle action" (Kaplan).Quelques rousseurs, mais bel exemplaire.
