Book Description
William Harvey and the Discovery of the Circulation of the Blood T.H. Huxley Unlike some other reproductions of classic texts (1) We have not used OCR(Optical Character Recognition), as this leads to bad quality books with introduced typos. (2) In books where there are images such as portraits, maps, sketches etc We have endeavoured to keep the quality of these images, so they represent accurately the original artefact. Although occasionally there may be certain imperfections with these old texts, we feel they deserve to be made available for future generations to enjoy. We are delighted to publish this classic book as part of our extensive Classic Library collection. Many of the books in our collection have been out of print for decades, and therefore have not been accessible to the general public. The aim of our publishing program is to facilitate rapid access to this vast reservoir of literature, and our view is that this is a significant literary work, which deserves to be brought back into print after many decades. The contents of the vast majority of titles in the Classic Library have been scanned from the original works. To ensure a high quality product, each title has been meticulously hand curated by our staff. Our philosophy has been guided by a desire to provide the reader with a book that is as close as possible to ownership of the original work. We hope that you will enjoy this wonderful classic work, and that for you it becomes an enriching experience.

Book Description
Excerpt from The Heart and Its Function Notwithstanding the many millions of years which our world and race have, according to some, already existed, the discovery of the circulation of the blood is but a thing of yesterday. From some passages in his work, De Trinitatis Erroribus, published in 1531, Servetus would seem to have been fully aware of the lesser or pulmo nary circulation. But it was not till 1628 that the doctrine of the circulation of the blood through the system generally was actually published by Dr. William Harvey, though indeed he 'had taught it publicly from the year 1619. It was not, however, till 1661, more than thirty years subsequently, that the circulation of the blood was actually demonstrated by means of the micro scope, by Malpighi, so that this important fact has been known for little more than two centuries. The whole quantity of blood in the body has been reckoned at about one-fourteenth part of the weight of the body; the blood in the body of a man weighing fourteen stone will therefore amount to one stone, or fourteen pounds. If we accept this as a probable average of the weight of blood in the body, then as fourteen pounds 'amount to 224 ounces, and as the left ventricle contains, as we suppose, only 3 ounces, it follows that the whole blood of a man weighing 196 lbs. Passes through his left ventricle in nearly 75 of its systoles or contractions. And as we suppose the heart to contract only 70 times in a minute, then the Whole of the blood of such a man passes through his heart 48 times in one hour, or II 52 times in one day. Of course the length of time that the Whole of the blood in a man takes to pass through his heart depends upon three factors, - first, the actual amount of blood he possesses; second, the size of his ventricular cavity; and thirdly, the rate of its pulsation.
