About This Item
Haarlem,: Johannes Marshoorn,, 1735 (=1727).. [ii blank], [xvi], 518, [iv blank] pp. Small 8vo (11 x 16,5 cm.). Full contemporary vellum. Title printed in red and black. One of the rarest of all Dutch 18th century obstetrical books. Worldwide there are only 4 copies in library holdings (NLM, UBA, UBL & UBU), and haven't been offered for sale for decades. First, posthumously, published in 1727, this "tweden druk" is nothing more than a remainder of the sheets of the 1727 edition with a new title-page, dated 1735. Because of the great rarity of this work, its importance have been ignored by most of the historians of obstetrics (i.a. von Siebold). Johannes Huwé was born at Haarlem, promoted MD at Groningen in 1699. As a pupil of Van Deventer, he devoted most of his life to Obstetrics. He was the FIRST to consider the mechanism of labor from a dynamic and mathematics point of view (i.a. pelvimetry, inclination of the pelvis and uterus, measurement of the scull and lower extremities of the infant, etc.). An interesting association copy with the signature and polychrome bookplate and signature of Jan van der Hoeven (1927), the rubber stamp of Dr. H.R. Semmelink and an illegible co
