Original printed wrappers except for no. 12 or without wrappers as issued. Very good to fine. First/First Separate Editions. Cannon professor and chair of the Department of Physiology at Harvard Medical School was one of the pre-eminent physiologists of the 20th century making fundamental contributions to our knowledge of digestion the autonomic nervous system homeostasis and stress response. Cannon was the first to use X rays to study the digestive system; his work laid the foundations of gastrointestinal radiology. "His pioneering research done with a series of collaborators examined the nature of swallowing gastric peristalsis the time of passage for different foodstuffs out of the stomach into the duodenum control of the pylorus and peristalsis of the small intestine" Dictionary of Scientific Biography. He spent most of the 1920s researching the autonomic nervous system the part of the nervous system responsible for controlling unconscious bodily functions such as the heartbeat. Cannon also introduced the case system into medical education at Harvard see no. 2 below. Three of the offprints in this collection bear presentation inscriptions from Cannon. Another offprint is from the library of Nobel Laureate Archibald V. Hill who was awarded a share of the 1922 Nobel Prize in Physiology/Medicine for his researches on the production of heat and mechanical work in muscles.

1945réf. 20581945 SCARCE FIRST PRINTING OF LANDMARK AUTOBIOGRAPHY BY WALTER CANNON WHO DEFINED THE FIGHT OR FLIGHT RESPONSE. 8 1/2 inches tall hardcover original red cloth binding stated first edition "A wartime book. This complete edition is produced in full compliance with the government's regulations for conserving paper and other essential materials". Light stain to upper right corner of front and back covers dampstaining to edges of dust jacket which has edge tears along top edge pages are clean and unmarked. Overall good. First printings of this wartime book an autobiography published the year of Cannon's death are very scarce. WALTER BRADFORD CANNON 1871 - 1945 was an American physiologist professor and chairman of the Department of Physiology at Harvard Medical School. He coined the term fight or flight response and he expanded on Claude Bernard's concept of homeostasis. In his autobiography The Way of an Investigator Cannon counts himself among the descendents of Jacques de Noyon a French Canadian explorer and coureur des bois. A high school teacher Mary Jeannette Newson became his mentor. "Miss May" Newson motivated and helped him take his academic skills to Harvard University. In 1896 his first year at Harvard Medical School he started working in Bowditch's Lab and in 1900 he received his medical degree. After graduation Cannon was hired by Harvard to instruct in the Department of Physiology. In 1906 Cannon became Higginson Professor and chairman of the Department of Physiology at Harvard Medical School a position he held until 1942. From 1914 to 1916 he was also President of the American Physiological Society. In 1915 he coined the term fight or flight to describe an animal's response to threats in Bodily Changes in Pain Hunger Fear and Rage: An Account of Recent Researches into the Function of Emotional Excitement.

1839réf. 66486Nashville TN: Executive office 1839. First edition. 4to 28 cm. 2 pp. Printed broadsheet address to "Fellow-Citizens of Tennessee announcing his candidacy for re-election as Governor of Tenness while explaining that the duties of the office will keep him from attending a statewide series of appearances with his opponent James K. Polk: "The attempt to make the tour of the State might and I fear would result in serious injury to the interests of the people as well as the inconveniences to which absence of the Executive would subject those who have immediate business with his department." The balance of this two-page address deals with Cannon's performance as governor the first Whig to hold the office especially emphasizing his opposition to the Jackson and Van Buren policies that brought about the Panic of 1837. Cannon was unable to keep his word on the campaigning however and "Newton and Polk undertook a joint canvass of the state but Cannon was no match for Polk whose ability as a stump speaker and powers of ridicule compelled the slower less magnetic Cannon to refuse to continue to speak from the same platform . Cannon was defeated and his public career ended" DAB. Not in American Imprints or Allen Tennessee Imprints 1791-1875. Not recorded on OCLC.
