Lectures on the Work of the Principal Digestive Glands ДОПИСАТЬ

Lecture

Pavlov, I.P. Lectures on the Work of the Principal Digestive Glands. St. Petersburg: Printing House of the Ministry of Railways (I.N. Kushnerev & Co.), 1897. [6], II, 223, [1] pages: illustrations, diagrams. 18.3 × 12.8 cm. In a contemporary composite binding with a leather label on the spine. Minor wear on the binding, slight splitting along the front and rear endpapers, upper corner of the title page and pages 5-6 cut (text unaffected), slight soiling and underlining on the title page; title page, page 17, and page 223 bear the stamped ex-libris "Library of the Rumyantsev Family." Aside from the mentioned defects, the text block is in very good preservation.

In 1904, the eminent physiologist and founder of the science of higher nervous activity, Ivan Petrovich Pavlov (1849–1936), became the first Russian scientist to be awarded the Nobel Prize. The award was granted to Pavlov for his years of research into the mechanisms of digestion, which led to a fundamental transformation of this field of physiology. The scientific results for which Pavlov received the Nobel Prize were first compiled into a single book and published in 1897. This was preceded by ten years of work by Pavlov and his colleagues at the Institute of Experimental Medicine and the Military Medical Academy.

This is the first edition of the book containing the research for which I.P. Pavlov later received the Nobel Prize. The publication holds historical and cultural significance and is considered a great rarity.

A prototype and its successor
L'inconnue de la Seine – a Prototype for Resusci Anne

The famous mask of L'inconnue de la Seine or La Belle Italienne served as prototype for the face of the world's first and main cardiopulmonary resuscitation manikin, Resusci Anne. The mask's history is worthy of further investigation, as it has been previously researched and is still a topic of ongoing study.
