RARE FIRST EDITION of this ambitious and luxurious publication of which only the first volume appeared. With this work Alibert intended to describe the diseases of the human body classified by the name of the organ from which they originate. This first (& only) volume describes 10 families: Gastroses - Enteroses - Choloses - Uroses - Pneumonoses - Angioses - Leucoses - Adenoses - Ethmoplecoses - Blennoses. The book is illustrated with 24 remarkable hand-colored copper-engraved plates by Tresca after Maurice and Valvile. Printed on heavyweight vellum paper, this work was intended to comprise two volumes, but manufacturing costs prevented the second volume from appearing. Alibert was chief physician at the Saint-Louis Hospital (1768-1837), first ordinary physician of King Charles X and founder of the French school of dermatology.
