First edition.
Treatise filled with very detailed clinical observations is very didactic. François Auguste Chopart (1743-1795) formed with Pierre Joseph Desault and the Englishman John Hunter a trio of friendly doctors who participated in the knowledge of the urinary system.

references: Garrison-Morton [4165.01 : "Chopart and Desault were the founders of urological surgery, both emphasizing the importance of considering the urinary tract as a whole. “They were close friends and were both able clinicians, surgeons and teachers. Desault was a brilliant lecturer who wrote little while Chopart, a poor speaker, published an outstanding textbook on urology” (Desnos, transl. Murphy)."].
