The Harveian Oration 1866 is a book written by George Edward Paget. The book is a transcript of a speech given by Paget in 1866 at the Royal College of Physicians in London, where he was appointed to deliver the annual Harveian Oration. The Harveian Oration is a tradition that began in 1656 to commemorate the life and work of William Harvey, a physician who discovered the circulation of blood in the human body.In his speech, Paget discusses the state of medical knowledge and education in the mid-19th century, and the challenges facing physicians in their practice. He emphasizes the importance of scientific research and experimentation in advancing medical knowledge and improving patient care. He also reflects on the legacy of William Harvey and the impact of his discoveries on the field of medicine.The book provides a valuable historical perspective on the development of medicine in the 19th century, and the role of the Harveian Oration in promoting scientific discourse and education in the medical community. It is a must-read for anyone interested in the history of medicine, and the evolution of medical knowledge and practice.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
