Hardcover. Condizione: Good. vii, 64 pp, 4 plates, 2 leaves, pp. [69]-139, [1, blank]. Contemporary cloth, rebacked with new cloth spine. "Birmingham Medical Institute" stamped on spine and front cover. Ink no. on verso of title page. Ink stamp of Birmingham Medical Institute on each plate. Ink correction to leaf K2* ("Advertisement" leaf): "Viccinae" corrected to "Vaccinae". Hole in 43/44, affecting one word on each page. Plates trimmed at bottom so text stating plates were engraved by William Skelton, after drawings by himself or Edward Pearce, is missing in part or completely. INSCRIBED BY EDWARD JENNER on first half-title: "For Henry Hickes Esq./ from his obliged friend/ the Author" (see photo). Inscribed on front pastedown: "W. F. Wade/ 16 Temple Row/ Birmingham/ from the library of the late Dr. Baron of Cheltenham/ the biographer of Jenner." Bookplate of Birmingham Medical Institute on front flyleaf, stating this copy was presented by Dr. Wade. LeFanu, A Bio-Bibliography of Edward Jenner 21, records this as one of seven inscribed copies of the second edition known to LeFanu. A remarkable association copy linking Jenner to his close friend and confidant Henry Hicks. This copy then passed to Jenner's friend and biographer John Baron. Baron, in his The Life of Edward Jenner, describes the long and close friendship between Jenner and Hicks, including Hicks's involvement in Jenner's writing and publication of the Inquiry, as well as Hicks's defense of Jenner after publication of the Inquiry and Hicks's own activity as a vaccinator. NOTE: WHAT FOLLOWS IS AN ABRIDGED DESCRIPTION. Abebooks limits number of characters allowed; I will email full description upon request. Jenner was elected a Fellow of the Royal Society in 1789. It was his hope that the Royal Society would publish his Inquiry. When this did not happen, Jenner turned to friends, including Henry Hicks, to advise him on publishing his manuscript privately. Baron writes: "His friends Gardener and Hicks were also often consulted about it; and, finally before it was sent to the press it was accurately and faithfully scrutinised by a select number of his particular associates. . . . They all felt deeply interested in the investigation; they all saw that a matter of so much moment ought to be canvassed with the greatest care; for the dearest interest of their fellow-creatures, as well as their own affectionately loved friend, was involved in it. The party present on this occasion were Mr. Westfaling, Dr. Worthington, Mr. Paytherus, and Mr. H. Hicks" (I: 142). After the publication of the Inquiry, Jenner resumed vaccination: "he [Jenner] inoculated two of the children of his friend Mr. Hicks. . . . I dwell on this incident that I may, in the first place, record Mr. Hicks's confidence in the prophylactic powers of cow-pox, who had the merit of being the first gentleman that submitted his own children to the new practice. . . ." (I: 303-04; p. 324). In the Further Observations, Jenner describes the vaccination of the children of Henry Hicks: "Having been requested by my friend Mr. Henry Hicks, of Eastington, in this county, to inoculate two of his children, and at the same time some of his servants and the people employed in his manufactory, matter was taken from the arm of this boy [James Hill, pp. 131-32] for the purpose. . . ." Eventually Henry Hicks became a vaccinator himself, as described by Baron: "I have already mentioned Henry Hicks as his friend and counsellor: I have also mentioned how sedulously he promoted vaccination by first submitting his own children to it, and then diffusing it in his neighbourhood: I have now to attempt to commemorate his services in another line. He made himself perfectly acquainted with all the details of cow-pox inoculation; and about this time he brought this knowledge into practice. He commenced a series of inoculations; and evinced an accuracy and fidelity which would have done honour to the most enlightened physician. . ." (I: 330-31). Signed by Author(s).

Jenner had the article reprinted as a pamphlet at Cheltenham (1806) [offered here]. . ." (LeFanu, ibid., p. 81). "Jenner recognized herpes, which produces its own confusing 'spurious pustules', to be a primary inhibitor of the vaccine virus, and cautioned medical practitioners to be especially careful when vaccinating people with skin diseases.

"Edward Jenner, a pupil of John Hunter and a general practitioner in the small English country town of Berkeley in Gloucestershire, learned of an old west country tradition that milkmaids who had contracted cowpox, a mild infection caught from cattle, did not take smallpox. He decided to make an experiment, and on 14 May 1796 he injected cowpox lymph from an infected milkmaid into a country boy, James Phipps. On 1 July following he inoculated Phipps with the smallpox virus. No infection developed.At first Jenner's book was much criticized; its doctrine was too unfamiliar. Between 1799 and 1806 he issued five supplementary reports, and gradually his system was adopted, not only in England, but all over the world.by 1803 the book had been translated into Latin, French, German, Italian, Dutch and Portuguese and had been made known in America by Waterhouse.Jenner's work is the basis of the modern science of immunology" (Printing and the Mind of Man). In 1798 he published this account of twenty-three successful vaccinations. In addition to the landmark discovery of the success of preventive inoculations against smallpox, the Inquiry was the first work to note the phenomenon of anaphlaxis or allergy. Within ten years of publication, Jenner was awarded 30,000 pounds by Parliament in acknowledgment of his great services. "Jenner started one of the greatest practical advances in preventive medicine and today there are inoculations.against scarlet fever, typhoid fever, diptheria, whooping-cough and tetanus, as well as.bubonic plague, cholera and yellow fever" (Printing and the Mind of Man). The success of Jenner's work led to the announcement of the World Health Organisation in 1980 that natural smallpox had been eradicated. "Whilst things were thus proceeding in England the knowledge of Dr. Jenner's surprising discovery was exciting the deepest interest wherever it was heard of on the Continent. The unhappy war which then rages prevented direct intercourse with France and many other parts. The 'Inquiry' nevertheless found its way, in the course of this year to Geneva, Hanover, and Vienna. I the first-mentioned place Drs. Odier and Peschier collected all the information that could be obtained on the subject and communicated it to the scientific world through the medium of Bibliothéque Britannique."

Published the same year as the English original."On the basis of an old country tradition that milkmaids who had contracted cowpox were not susceptible to smallpox, Jenner, an English country physician, decided to experiment by injecting cowpox-infected lymph into a local boy. After inoculation the boy was found to be immune to smallpox and Jenner continued his experiments. In 1798 he published the present epochal work, the results of a long and successful series of case histories. By 1803 his work had been translated into numerous languages and his method of immunization was taken up with amazing speed, becoming almost universally adopted.

Hardcover. Condizione: Very Good. Australian Edition. 27cm x 22cm. [ii], v, 184 pages, 4 colour plates. Half leather, marbled papered boards, gilt lettering. The 1884 Australian reprint of one of the seminal works of medicine, Edward Jenner's pioneering work on the creation of the smallpox vaccine, the world's first vaccine. Published in the wake of Sydney's 1881 smallpox outbreak as part of a renewed push in what was a long and unsuccessful campaign by New South Wales medical practitioners for mandatory vaccination, when by 1860, Queensland and New South Wales were the only Australian colonies not to have enacted such legislation. Reprinted from Australian physician George Bennett's copy of the Second Edition published by Sampson Low in 1800 and containing the second and third parts, while stated in the preface (likely penned by John Creed) to be "a perfect fac simile", differs from the original edition in that it is "printed in a later and slightly larger type, in which the old "s" form does not appear. The half-title is omitted, and the title page, though a fairly close reproduction of the original, bears in small type a job number of the local printer. On the reverse of the title, blank in the original, appears "Reprinted by Authority: Thomas Richards, Government Printer, Sydney, 1884. A preface occupying a single page is inserted, and this, with the differences in type, alter the pagination. As in the original, a second part "A Continuation of Facts and Observations Relative to the Variolae Vaccinae", with its own half-title and title pages, is included. The four coloured engravings are well reproduced in lithograph, the artist's and engraver's names being omitted.

Hardcover. Condizione: Very Good. No Jacket. A truly RARE copy of The Philosophical Magazine 1810 Vol. XXXVI in exceptionally good internal condition throughout.

No loose or damaged / marked pages with no foxing apart from a little light browning to plates to rear (a different paper used) and off-setting on title page. Clean pebbled black Rexine boards with remains of old leather labels to spine. Just a little insignificant offsetting and dustiness to prelims. Plain brown end-papers with National Lending Library for Science and Technology plate to front along with Deleted stamp. No other Library markings can be found apart from a neat impressed (non-ink) stamp to title page from the Athenaeum Library 1873. Consisting 476 pages (including Index) plus Plates 1-5, 8-11 (note, no plates appear to have been removed and as the plates appear to have been set to different type/formats it is not clear if plates 6&7 were ever present). Plates include: Design for a Cast Iron Tunnel to cross the Thames; a Musical Tuning Table by Musicus Ignoramus, 1809; Camp Telegraph and cross sections of the Great Bog in 'King's Kildare' Ireland. Apart from those topics already mentioned there is a wealth of diverse and interesting material including: Brande on Urine, North American meteorites, (on the Thames Tunnel, Marc Brunel says the plan has already been settled), Salem Harris on Solar and Lunar Attraction, Hauy on Crystallography, Journey to Siberia, Comets, Dublin Cow Pox Institution, a new metallic thermometer by Richard Walker of Oxford, the purity of the Gold Standard, etc., etc. A mine of early science and discovery.
