Roterodami:: ex officinâ Arnoldi Leers, 1659., 1659. Two parts in one. 15 cm. 12mo. [2], 125, [1] pp. [Complete]. Printer’s woodcut device on title; title margin trimmed. Original paste-paper over boards; simple repairs to spine with old manuscript title added, spine worn, some internal waterstaining to bottom edge. Shelf-mark on p. 1 (lower margin). Title margin trimmed. Good. First edition. Published in two parts, Primerose ?deals with the care of the newborn infant and the feeding of infants,? and the second part is devoted to the problem of infantile diseases and mortality, especially of rickets. ?Primerose was one of those who still regarded the ancient medical writers as the Law and the Prophets, and his book is little more than a compilation from them, mixed with more of ignorant custom and superstition than one can find in any single ancient writer, unless perhaps in Artius; though Primerose, it must be said, does sometimes acknowledge that a custom or opinion mentioned is superstitious.…

Boston:: Printed by David Clapp, 1847., 1847. 8vo. 29, [3], xviii pp. Original brown printed wrappers. Near fine. This is the one and only publication of Martin Gay, though he was learned and lectured widely. Publishing his papers was not something he did more than this once. ?He published nothing in his own name except a pamphlet, in the year 1847, entitled, ?Discovery, by Charles T. Jackson, M.D., of the Applicability of Sulphuric Ether in Surgical Operations.? Whatever difference of opinions may exist as to the question at issue in the controversy respecting the discovery of Etherization, there can be none as to the ability, fairness, and gentlemanly spirit with which that production is written, nor the generous devotion of friendship which prompted him to undertake the defense of what he believed, with the strongest conviction, to use his language, to be 'the cause of truth and justice.??

"In this book, real life photos are used to help young people feel more comfortable with interacting with other children and making new friends. A Note From Fred Rogers: A child's first visit with a pediatrician usually comes soon after birth. It may be months or even years later, though, that a child first shows fear about going to see a doctor. The worry of an injection or some other unfamiliar medical procedure can trigger that fear. It can also appear because another family member may be feeling medical anxieties. And, of course, new body awareness and needs for privacy develop naturally in children's early years, so all these feelings can make it very hard for them to let doctors investigate the workings of…
