Royal College of Physicians of Edinburgh, Edinburgh, first edition,1982. Cloth, 4to,. xxxii, 298 pp, 29 ills. 2509 entries. From the blurb: "One of the College's most precious treasures is the library - the largest of its kind in Scotland. The collection of historical material is one of the finest in the world, including such landmarks as Celsus' De medicina of 1478, the De fabrica of Vesalius, 1543, and Harvey's De motu cordis published in 1628. With such a heritage, it is fitting that the college should have made funds available to continue the union catalogue of early medical books in Edinburgh libraries. The Royal Medical Society had initiated the project by publishing, in 1976, a catalogue of the medical incunabula. This present volume now continues the story up to the year 1600, cataloguing the records of the eventful renaissance of the medical sciences." From a contemporary review in The Book Collector by David McKitterick: "Mr Bird has risen to his task with skill, imagination and aplomb. His catalogue, of just over 2,500 items, is quite admirable, and he has rightly taken a very broad view of what in the sixteenth century might be meant by medical literature: he has therefore incidentally added over sixty items to Mr Hargreaves' earlier work. To the catalogue proper he has added a series of indexes of which that to subjects wiil be invaluable, while his index of provenances is a model to which it is possible to add only in detail. Near Very Good in a somewhat marked and worn dustwrapper, with an abrasion to the front panel and a tape-sticker on the rear panel.
