Lectures on the Whole of Anatomy: An Annotated Translation of Prelectiones Anatomiae Universalis offers an invaluable glimpse into the formative stages of modern anatomy as pioneered by William Harvey. This richly annotated translation sheds light on Harvey's original lecture notes, prepared during his tenure as the Lumleian Lecturer at the Royal College of Physicians in the early 17th century. It offers readers a comprehensive view of his meticulous anatomical dissections and observations, which laid the groundwork for his revolutionary discovery of the circulation of blood. These notes, written primarily in Latin and interspersed with English and other languages, capture Harvey's scientific rigor and his deep engagement with the classical and contemporary literature of his time.This annotated edition not only preserves Harvey's original texts but also contextualizes them with detailed commentary and insights into his methodology and intellectual milieu. It traces the evolution of his ideas, particularly the gradual shift from Aristotelian thought to a more empirical, observation-based scientific approach. The inclusion of references to Harvey's extensive comparative anatomy studies and clinical observations further enriches the narrative, showcasing his role as both a pioneering experimentalist and a practicing physician. By blending historical commentary with meticulous translation, this work provides an essential resource for scholars and enthusiasts of medical history, shedding light on a pivotal moment in the development of anatomy and physiology.This title is part of UC Press's Voices Revived program, which commemorates University of California Press’s mission to seek out and cultivate the brightest minds and give them voice, reach, and impact. Drawing on a backlist dating to 1893, Voices Revived makes high-quality, peer-reviewed scholarship accessible once again using print-on-demand technology. This title was originally published in 1961.

This text encourages builders of complex information systems to accelerate their move to using the approach of a scientific discipline in analysis rather than the approach of a craft. The focus is on understanding customers' needs and on precise specification of understanding gained through analysis. Specifications must bridge any gaps in understanding about business rules among customers, subject matter experts, and "computer people", must inform decisions about reuse of software and systems, and must enable review of semantics over time. Specifications need to describe semantics rather than syntax, and to do that in an abstract and precise manner, in order to create software systems that satisfy business rules. The papers in this book show various ways of designing elegant and clear specifications which are reusable, lead to savings of intellectual effort, time, and money, and which contribute to the reliability of software and systems. This text offers a treatment of the object-oriented paradigm by examining the limitations of traditional OO methodologies and by describing the significance of competing trends in OO modeling.It builds on four years of successful OOPSLA workshops (1991-1995) on behavior semantics. This book deals with precise specifications of `what' is accomplished by the business and `what' is to be done by a system. It includes descriptions of successful use of abstract and precise specification in industry. It draws on the experience of experts from industrial and academic settings and benefits from international participation. Collective behavior, neglected in some treatment of the OO paradigm, is addressed explicitly in this book. The book does not take "reuse" of specifications or software for granted, but furnishes a foundation for taking as rigorous an approach to reuse decisions as to precise specifications in original developments.

William Harvey's revolutionary book on the circulatory system, published in Latin in 1628, demonstrated for the first time how the heart pumps blood through the body. His findings overturned the world's basic understanding of the way the body functions and changed fundamental knowledge of physiology as much as any scientific work in history. The Works of William Harvey will provide scientists, students, physicians, and interested lay persons access to the original works of a pioneer who shaped contemporary science.This edition is a reissue of the 1965 facsimile of the 1867 collection and translation of Harvey's works. Included are his groundbreaking 1628 book on the circulatory system, a book on animal reproduction, and various shorter scientific writings and letters, along with a new introduction.

William Harvey (1578-1657) was a rebel in medical science: Contrary to contemporary practice, he began his epoch-making investigation into the action of the heart and the blood's circulation by minutely observing their action in live animals and by a lengthy series of dissections, rather than by mere reliance on the anatomical lessons of ancient medicine and philosophy. "On the Motion of the Heart and Blood in Animals", including explanations of heart valves and arterial pulse, stands as a triumph of true scientific inquiry, and is still regarded as one of the greatest discoveries in physiology.
