Sobre este artículo
Paris: Crapart, Caille et Ravier, An X [1802] Contemporary quarter calf over batik boards, gilt-lettered spines, speckled edges. . Two volumes, octavo. Hinges cracking, spines a bit scuffed, but a very good copy overall. In cloth open-end slipcase. This is Cabaniss (1757-1808) principle work. It is comprised of twelve Mémoires, the first six of which were read at sessions of the Institut de France. Cabanis sets forth a psychology and an ethical system based on the necessary effects of an animals organization upon its relationships with its environment. Even the unlimited perfectability of the human species, which renders it capable of all things, derives from the fact that man is undoubtedly the most subject to the influence of exterior causes. As a physician, Cabanis considered, in the seventh memoir of the Rapports, the influence of illnesses on the formation of ideas and values. The text is a summary of his physiological and medical conceptions. Borrowing the word from the German philosophers, Cabanis termed the science of man anthropologie, the methodical joining of the physical history and the moral science of man (George Canguilhem, Dictionary of Scientific Biography).

Our office is located in Los Angeles on West Third Street, between the Beverly Center and Farmer's Market. Though we gave up an open shop after more than thirty years, we welcome serious customers and dealers. We are normally open from 10 to 6 Monday through Saturday. Since some of our less expensive books are located in a temperature-controlled storage area offsite, you may want to call ahead of time to insure that the book you want to see will be available. We feature a stock strong in literature, history, Western philosophy, women's studies, education, history of science and fine printing and artists' books. We are members of the Antiquarian Booksellers Association of America and the International League of Antiquarian Booksellers. We have books from the 15th to the 20th century in all prices ranges. We do appraisals for income tax and insurance purposes. We purchase individual books and libraries. Proprietor: Carol Sandberg
