First french edition.
John Aikin insists on the role of hospitals in the advancement of medical science. First of all, with regard to teaching. Since the founding in 1658 of a clinical school at the Leiden hospital, the use of hospitals as a teaching ground had continued to grow, which Aikin was pleased about and which others sometimes deplored as having disadvantages for the sensitivity, or even the health, of patients. The organization of hospitals as places of teaching and research is the source of our current university hospitals.

He taught for some time in Pisa with great brilliance, and became physician to Pope Alexander VII. This high dignity did not prevent him from giving courses in Rome, where he contributed greatly to the flourishing of the University. He died in 1682, at a very advanced age.

First edition.
"The name of the tuscan physician Angelo Gatti has been closely linked to the practice and promotion of the inoculation for smallpox. Before Jenner discoveries about vaccine, this medical technique was the only way to prevent an endemic and deadly disease like smallpox. In the second half of the XVIIIth century the inoculation for smallpox became a discussed practice, able to involved in the debate not only the scientific community but also the social and political milieu. Gatti arrived in Paris in 1760 where he became famous thanks to his masterpieces: the Réflexions sur les préjugés qui s'opposent au progrès et à la perfection de l'inoculation (1764) and the Nouvelles réflexions sur la pratique de l'inoculation (1767). "

A practical manual for performing inoculation, an unsafe process that preceded Jenner's vaccination.
