Minor wear and soiling, browning throughout.THREE FIRST EDTIONS of the principal works of Lazzaro Spallanzani, a Catholic priest and educator whose contributions to the knowledge of circulation and the development of living organisms may not have been fully appreciated until long after his death. In the first classic monograph here, he outlines his investigations into blood flow and the effects of gravity. The second monograph is an expansion of the first, recording his observations on the effect of the action of the heart on blood flow. His posthumously-published Memoires, translated and assembled by Senebier, demonstrated that Lavoisier's conception of respiration was inaccurate, and laid the groundwork for our modern understanding of respiratory physiology.
