Science stood at a crossroads. In this masterly william harvey biography, surgeon and historian D'Arcy Power traces the life of the man whose bold experiments and clear reasoning revealed the circulation of blood, a discovery that reshaped medicine for all time. Moving from Harvey's training in Padua to his career in seventeenth century England as a court physician and anatomist, Power sets the great discovery against a vivid backdrop of religious tension, scholarly rivalry and changing views of the body. The narrative blends clinical insight with human detail, turning a key figure in early modern physiology history into a living presence rather than a distant name. Both an accessible medical biography book and a classic history of medicine book, it speaks equally to medical students, to history of science readers, and to anyone drawn to the lives of great scientists. Originally issued in the influential Masters of Medicine series, this scientific biography classic also offers a compact survey of English medical history at a turning point, when observation began to challenge inherited dogma. Out of print for decades and now republished by Alpha Editions. Restored for today's and future generations. More than a reprint - a collector's item and a cultural treasure, ready to inspire thoughtful browsing, serious study and the finest history-of-science shelves alike.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Alpha Edition","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":48227587784855,"sku":"9789354447242","price":2948.0,"currency_code":"INR","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0666\/3471\/1191\/files\/9789354447242.webp?v=1788775593","url":"https:\/\/atlanticbooks.com\/products\/william-harvey-9789354447242","provider":"Atlantic Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
