Under 1 lb.   <b>This is an ORIGINAL, not a reprint or print-on-demand copy!</b> Written by Henry John MD, whom the book’s Foreword says had treated 1,400 patients with diabetes, <b><font color=red>TECHNIQUE IN THE MANAGEMENT OF DIABETIC PATIENTS </b></font> was published in 1927 by the William Feather Company, Cleveland OH. Its purpose was to describe techniques both the general practitioner and the laboratory physician should be thoroughly familiar with in the diagnosis and treatment of diabetes – securing a blood specimen for analysis, preparing a glucose solution for intravenous administration, and administering insulin. The 62-page hardbound book covers those techniques, using 28 black/white photos and drawings to illustrate the text. The book is in Very Good condition – covers have a couple of very minor scuffs. Inside pages are without apparent defects. It is, however, ex lib with the usual library markings. It’s also an unusually difficult title to find on today’s market. (5464)   <b>This is an ORIGINAL, not a reprint or print-on-demand copy!</b> ‘The complement-fixation test or, as it is best known, the Wassermann test … as applied to the study of syphilis … is one of the most frequently applied of all clinical laboratory procedures. Unfortunately, it is perhaps more frequently applied than wisely interpreted.’ So begins the Preface to <b><font color=red>THE CLINICAL INTERPRETATION OF THE WASSERMANN REACTION, </b></font> written by Robert A. Kilduffe, director of laboratories for Atlantic City Hospital, NJ. It was published in 1926 by Lea & Febiger, New York. In the 203-page hardbound book, the author discusses basic principles of the test, technical principles, mechanism of the reaction, general considerations concerning the serological study of syphilis, anticomplementary reactions, reaction to syphilitic infection, false negative reactions, and more. The information is illustrated with numerous black/white charts and graphs. Condition of the book is Very Good, although it is ex lib with the usual library markings. Covers show light scuffs and minor edge/corner wear. Someone used a metal paperclip as a bookmark on back endpapers and this left an indentation at top. Otherwise, inside pages are without apparent defects. (5467)

A scarce book in today’s marketplace, <b><font color=red> OESOPHAGEAL OBSTRUCTION, ITS PATHOLOGY, DIAGNOSIS AND TREATMENT</b></font> is based on the Jacksonian prize essay of the Royal College of Surgeons of England for 1924, and includes a Hunterian lecture delivered at the Royal College of Surgeons in 1926. It was written by A. Lawrence Abel, assistant surgeon to the Cancer Hospital, London, and published in 1929 by the Oxford University Press, London. More than 130 illustrations in the text supplement the two full-page color plates used here. Topics covered include anatomical and embryological considerations; physiological considerations and bacteriology; instrumentarium (great photos of strange medical instruments); treatment; obstruction due to congenital malformations; acute obstruction; cardiospasm and neuropathic affections; chronic obstruction; diverticulum; chronic obstruction (simple ulcer, tumours, varies, tuberculosis, syphilis, actinomycosis); simple strictures; cancer of Esophagus. The 234-page hardbound book is a beauty – and one that’s particularly difficult to find! Condition is Very Good, although it is ex lib with the usual library markings. Covers show some minor edge/corner/spine end wear. A previous owner’s name is handwritten on front endpaper. Inside pages show no apparent defects! (5463) <i><FONT COLOR=BLUE>We see many reprints and 'print on demand' books for sale these days ... but we believe it's difficult in most instances to do better than the original version! Pages are where they should be ... and the photos and other illustrations are always included in the books we sell. Some of our books are ex lib (withdrawn from a library), but unless otherwise noted in our descriptions, these have no library-related damage beyond the usual library markings and card pockets. This book is one of those originals!<i></font>   Attempting to honor pioneer immunologists and to organize the contributions of immunologists, biochemists, geneticists and biophysicists into a clear picture of immunological agents and mechanisms, Iowa State University professor of bacteriology Loyd Y Quinn wrote <b><font color=red>IMMUNOLOGICAL CONCEPTS.</b></font> The 260-page hardbound book was published in this 1968 First Edition by the Iowa State University Press, Ames. Using color plates and black/white photos, Quinn discusses topics such as the historical background of immunology; the immunological response; antigens and antigen-like agents; serous globulins and immunoglobulins; the complement-complex; circulating soluble antibodies; antiviral immunity; delayed hypersensitivity and inflammatory reactions; immunogenetics; antibody production and immunological and serological techniques. A glossary, bibliography and index complete the volume. Condition of the book is Very Good, although it is ex lib with the usual library markings. Covers show very light edge/corner wear and a few minor scuffs. Inside pages show no apparent defects. (5468)   Good teeth and their normal use play an important role in the maintenance of optimum health. This was the philosophy of John T. O'Rourke, DDS, who wrote <b><font color=blue>ORAL PHYSIOLOGY,</font></b> published in 1951 by the C. V. Mosby Co., St. Louis. In the 333-page hardbound book's 14 chapters are discussions of the prevalence of dental disease; chief functions of the mouth; mastication; mastication in domestic animals; mastication in relation to deglutiton; mastication in relation to other parts of the alimentary tract; taste, smell and other sensations in relation to mastication; mastication's significance to children; geriatric relationships; saliva; factors interfering with normal mastication; adaptations to deficient masticatory functions; nutritional implications; and relation of the physical character of diet to the health of supporting tissues. The book is in Very Good condition, although it is ex lib with the usual library markings. There are no other apparent defects -- inside or out! (5164)   Edited by R.D.G. Simons, University of Leyden, Amsterdam, and published in 1954 at Amsterdam by Elsevier Publishing Co., <b><font color=blue>Medical Mycology</font></b> includes the contributions of 36 international scientists. Contents of the 446-page hardbound book cover 46 chapters on major areas of mycology study, including its development; physiology of fungi; mycological technique; experimental infections of lab animals; trichophytosis of the smooth skin; microsporum infection of smooth skin; and much more! The book features many, many great color and black/white plates to illustrate the text. It is in Good+ condition, although ex lib with the usual library markings. The covers show some edge/corner/spine end wear and slight scuffs. Both hinges are broken, but all inside pages are still tightly bound. They're without apparent defects. (5157)

Edited by F. W. Hoffbauer, University of Minnesota Hospitals, and published in 1954 by Jossey-Bass for the Josiah Macy, Jr. Foundation, New York, <b>Liver Injury</b> reports the transactions of the 12th Conference held at Princeton NJ in September 1953. Topics of 10 papers presented include The Liver and Carbohydrate Metabolism; The Liver and Fat Metabolism; Cardiovascular Lesions in Choline-Deficient Rats; and The Liver and Protein Metabolism. The 231-page hardbound book is completely indexed and has a full-page photo of participants. It is further illustrated with black/white and color photos and graphs/charts. The book is ex lib with the usual library markings, yet still in Very Good condition. Covers have one corner crease; inside pages show no apparent defects. (5161)   A classic study in nutrition, <b><font color=red>Toward the Conquest of Beriberi</b></font> was written by Robert R. Williams and published in 1961 by the Harvard University Press, Cambridge. The book was designed, says the author, to view events that have revealed the cause, cure and means of prevention of beriberi; instruct those who will be working to complete the conquest of beriberi; and reveal various methods of research that might be useful to those who face similar problems in other fields of human welfare. Noting that the world's knowledge of tropical medicine is a direct outgrowth of European colonialism that left many Asians to feel there were injustices in how they were treated, and that East-West relations are now struggling toward a new sense of unit and fair sharing of resources, the author says this study of beriberi is an excellent example of the joining of cultures for mutual advantage. The 338-page hardbound book is illustrated with 48 tables, figures and other illustrations. It is in Very Good condition, although it is ex lib with the usual library markings. Covers show some very minor stains on the front and minor edge/corner wear. Inside pages have no apparent defects. (5336)   William D. Lotspeich, MD, from the University of Cincinnati College of Medicine wrote <b><font color=red>Metabolic Aspects of Renal Function,</b></font> published in 1959 by Charles C. Thomas, Springfield. According to the author's introduction, three main areas were the most active and pressing in contemporry renal physiology. These include the general problem of water and osmoregulation; the regulation of renal blood flow; and the biochemical aspects of renal function. The last of these subjects is discussed in this 214-page hardbound book. The book has numerous illustrations and, despite being ex lib with the usual library markings, is in Very Good condition. Covers show minor wear on the corners; spine ends have light wear. Inside pages, however, are without apparent defects. (5343)   Isaac Starr, MD, Research Professor in the University of Pennsylvania School of Medicine wrote <b><Font color=red> Physiologic Therapy For Obstructive Vascular Disease</b></font> as part of the Modern Medical Monographs series from Grune & Stratton Publishers, New York. This is listed as #6 and was published in 1953. Revealing in the Preface that he saw 'no reason why medical writing should be as completely dull as it so often is,' the author notes that he included personal experience to give a truer picture of the conditions under which clinical research is conducted and a background against which its results could be accurately judged. The 38-page hardbound book doesn't remove all the stigma of the stilted writing style, but does present some of the itnerst and excitement common to those who are pushing forward the frontiers of knowdge. The book is in Very Good condition, althouguh it is ex lib with the usual library markings. Covers show some very minor scuffing an edges. Inside pages have noa pparent defects. (5353)

Edited by G.E.W. Wolstenholme and Julie Knight, and published in 1965 by Little, Brown & Co., Boston, <b>Gonadotrophins: Physiochemical & Immunological Properties</b> is #22 in the Ciba Foundation Study Group Series. Held to honor Dr. Christian Hamburger, renowned gonadotropins researcher who contributed the historical introduction, the 125-page hardbound book was devoted more to discussion than to presentation of papers. Topics discussed include the chemistry of gonadotrpopins, and the four better characterized gonadotropins, pituitary FSH; pituitary LH; HCG; and PMSG. More than 20 international experts participated in the Study Group. The book is illustrated with black/white photos, as well as a series of tables and graphs. It is in Very Good condition, although ex lib with the usual library markings. Covers show minor wear at spine. Inside pages show no apparent defects. (5154)   Published in 1965 by Little, Brown & Co., Boston, <b><font color=red>Coagulation and Transfusion in Clinical Medicine</b></font> was written by Shirley Johnson, Physiology Professor, and Tibor Greenwalt, Professor of Medicine at the Marquette University School of Medicine. This is the stated First Edition. The 203-page hardbound book discusses the relatively complex mechanisms of blood coagulation to help the medical doctor interpret laboratory tests performed on his patients. Each test is defined by what it measures and when it can be expected to yield information meaningful in establishing the nature of the bleeding problem. A comprehensive view of blood bank services is included to insure familiarity with the properties of each available blood component and the indications for its use. Separate chapters are devoted to hemophilias, other congenital coagulation disorders, thrombocytopenia, disorders of platelet function and the disturbances of coagulation encountered in pregnancy, in the newborn and in liver disease. It is illustrated with black/white photos and drawings and is in Very Good condition, although it is ex lib with the usual library markings. Covers are slightly soiled, with very minor edge/corner wear. Inside pages show no apparent defects. (5344)   Designed as a guide in the study of fungal diseases, <b><font color=red> Elements of Medical Mycology </b></font> was written by Jacob H. Swartz, MD, Harvard Medical School. It was published in 1943 by Grune & Stratton, New York.
