4to, pp.12, with halftone illustrations in the text; stapled as issued.Second edition of Fleming's study announcing the discovery of penicillin, one of 250 copies which Fleming commissioned to be printed in 1944. The original offprint, issued in 1929 in 150 copies and liberally distributed by Fleming to the scientific community at large for the prompt furthering of much-needed research, is now virtually unobtainable. In 1928, while working with culture plates of Staphylococcus bacteria at StMary's Hospital in London, Fleming noticed that some of his plates had become contaminated with a mould and that the bacterial colonies in contact with it had become transparent or dissolved. He reported his discovery in 1929 in a paper published in the British Journal of experimental Pathology, naming the bactericidal substance 'penicillin' and proposing that an extract from it 'may be an efficient antiseptic for application to, or injection into, areas infected with penicillin-sensitive microbes'. However, as the substance proved too intractably unstable and Fleming remained unable to produce a stable and reliable drug, the paper failed to achieve an immediate impact. Only over a decade later, in 1940, did Ernst Chain and Howard Florey succeed in stabilising the drug and prescribing dosages for treatment. Provenance:The virologist Fred Himmelweit (19021977), who fled Germany in 1933, ending up in London with a job at the Wright-Fleming Institute at Saint Mary's Hospital, first under SirAlmroth Wright (18611947) and then under Fleming. There he studied viruses and the development of influenza vaccines, and eventually became director of the Department of Virus Research. Norman 799.

London, Buttewrworth & Co. (Publishers), Ltd. Bell Yard, Temple Bar, July 1946, 8°, X, 380 pp., 59 Abbildungen, orig. Leinenband. First edition, first issue of the first printing of "the only book that Fleming prepared regarding his discovery of the antibiotic properties of penicillin". Norman Alexander Fleming made his discovery in 1928 and published his earliest paper on penicillin in 1929. But the substance was difficult to purify, and did not become available in large quantities until Howard Florey and Ernest Chain successfully mass-produced it at the beginning of the Second World War. It was during this conflict that penicillin proved its worth, successfully treating hundreds of thousands of Allied soldiers. This volume was published shortly after the war in the expectation that penicillin would soon be available commercially, but "there was not yet an authoritative British book for the guidance of the practitioner in its use" (preface). It contains an introduction by Fleming on his discovery of penicillin and 26 other essays on the history, manufacture, and clinical use of the drug by "experienced and eminent men" who were among the earliest to experiment with and prescribe it. A key work on the most significant medical breakthrough of the 20th-century, published while the therapy was still "very young and rapidly evolving". preface Printing and the Mind of Man 420; Garrison-Morton No.1933; Norman Libr.
