[…] Along these lines, the book should not only be of interest to the historian of medicine or science, but also to the general historian, the philosopher of history, and to all those concerned with the practicalities required to give the living conditions of certain individuals the fictional characters of a universal history of glory. […] This is more than a book on eighteenth-century ideas of progress. By focusing on new sources, like obituaries and eulogies, the book also explores the coming into existence of a new historical narrative that goes far beyong the realm of science and medicine’.\u003cbr\u003e \u003ci\u003eMedical History\u003c\/i\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eTable of Contents\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003eFrédéric Charbonneau, Introduction\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eHélène Cazes, Réédition et retour au progrès: les \u003cem\u003eŒuvres\u003c\/em\u003e d’André Vésale (Leyde, Boerhaave et Albinus, 1725), acte de naissance et de renaissance de l’anatomie\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eClaire Crignon, William Harvey: nouveau Démocrite?
