Opera Omnia..., Volumes 1-2... [Latin]

By Thomas Willis

Opera Omnia presents the collected works of Thomas Willis (1621-1675), a pivotal figure in the history of medicine and a founder of neurology. This comprehensive Latin edition offers insight into the scientific thought of the 17th century. Willis's detailed anatomical descriptions and innovative theories advanced the understanding of the brain, nerves, and muscular system.

These volumes showcase Willis's contributions to anatomy, pathology, and pharmacology, reflecting the transition from Galenic traditions to more empirical methods. His work on fevers, fermentation, and the nervous system established a foundation for modern medicine, influencing generations of physicians and scientists. Opera Omnia remains a valuable resource for scholars interested in the development of scientific and medical knowledge during the early modern period.
