1. 1. On The Motion Of The Heart And Blood In Animals

   

   A systematic account arguing that the heart acts as a muscular pump driving blood around a closed circulatory system, with arteries and veins forming a connected circuit; the author supports this claim with careful anatomical observations, measurements, and experiments on living and dissected animals, overturning longstanding Galenic ideas about blood production and consumption and establishing experimental methods that became foundational for modern physiology.
