Bound in brown cloth spine with gilt spine lettering and patterned paper-covered boards. Binding remains intact, with rubbing, scuffing, edgewear, bumped and exposed corners, wear to spine ends, and an old small paper shelf label near foot of spine.

Hardcover. Condizione: Very Good. 1st Edition. 2 leaves, xxvi, 331 pp, 1 leaf [contents]. Contemporary full leather, embossed with a cartouche on the covers, and with brown leather spine label (possibly a presentation binding). Joints rubbed. Ink stamp of Royal Society of Edinburgh on title page. Lightly foxed. Very Good. First Edition. SIGNED BY PIERRE FLOURENS: "À la Société royale d'Édinbourg,/ Hommage de l'auteur Flourens." Garrison-Morton 1493. "Flourens was one of the chief opponents of Gall's doctrine of cerebral localization, and devised several experiments to refute it. The present work describes Flourens's series of experiments on pigeons, in which he selectively removed either the cerebral lobes or the cerebellum in order to demonstrate their roles in brain physiology. The pigeons deprived of their cerebral lobes retained their sense of equilibrium, but lost all sense of volition and showed no sensory awareness of their surroundings; in contrast, those deprived of their cerebellums lost all ability to coordinate their muscular motions, but retained their ability to initiate movement and process sensory information. Flourens concluded from these experiments that the cerebral lobes were the seat of intelligence and perception, while the faculty of muscular coordination resided in the cerebellum; however, he insisted that the entire brain acted as a whole with respect to each of its functions" (Norman 804).

The second volume, in a matching binding, contains the following works by Pierre Flourens: 2. Expériences sur le système nerveux; faisant suite aux recherches expérimentales sur les propriétés et les fonctions du système nerveux dans les animaux vertébrés. Paris: Crevot, 1825. 2 leaves, iv, 53 pp, 1 leaf [contents]. SIGNED BY PIERRE FLOURENS: "À la Société royale d'Édinbourg,/ Hommage de l'auteur Flourens." "Three physiological memoirs communicated to the Académie des Sciences on 27 December 1824. . . . The last marks the beginning of Flourens's important researches on the inner ear of birds, in which he discovered that lesions of the semicircular canals produced loss of equilibrium, vertigo and convulsive movements of the head and eyeballs" (Norman 807). Politzer, History of Otology, pp. 251-53. Flourens won the Montyon Prize in experimental physiology in both 1824 and 1825 for these publications. The volume with Expériences sur le système nerveux also contains Offprints of 9 articles by Flourens published in the Annales des sciences naturelles between 1828 and 1832, as well as specially-prepared extracts of 6 papers by Flourens. A COMPLETE LIST OF THESE 15 PUBLICATIONS IS AVAILABLE ON REQUEST. The 15 publications include the following 4 (as well as 11 others): 3. "Recherches sur les canaux semi-circulaires de l'oreille chez les oiseaux." (Extrait des Annales des Sciences naturelles, octobre 1828). 12 pp. Garrison-Morton 1557: "Flourens showed that lesion of the semicircular canals produces motor incoordination and loss of equilibrium. Menière based his work (no. 3372) on Flourens's crucial experiments." 4. "Expériences sur les canaux semi-circulaires de l'oreille chez les mammifères." (Extrait des Annales des Sciences naturelles, janvier 1829). 11 pp. 8. "Considérations sur l'opération du trepan, et sur les lesions du cerveau.

First Separate Edition In this separate printing, the paper has been repaginated 1-50. In the original journal issue--Archives générales de Médecine, Vol. 2, 1823--the paper is paginated 321-70. Garrison-Morton 1391: "Flourens removed the cerebrum and cerebellum in pigeons, showing maintenance of reflexes with loss of cerebration in the former case and disturbance of equilibrium in the latter case. Thus he demonstrated that the cerebrum is the organ of thought and the cerebellum the organ controlling the co-ordination of body movements and of will-power."
