This collection, entitled Oeuvres De Tissot, presents a selection of important medical writings by Samuel Auguste Tissot, a prominent 18th-century Swiss physician. Included are L'inoculation Justifiée (Inoculation Justified), which champions the practice of smallpox inoculation, a topic of considerable debate during Tissot's time. Also featured is Dissertation Sur L'inutilité De L'amputation Des Membres (Dissertation on the Uselessness of Amputation of Limbs), reflecting evolving surgical practices. The collection also includes Essai Sur Les Maladies Des Gens Du Monde... (Essay on the Diseases of People of the World...). Tissot's works offer valuable insights into the medical theories and practices of the Enlightenment era, as well as the social and cultural context of disease. This volume provides a unique window into the history of medicine and public health in 18th-century Europe.
