In den WarenkorbPhil. Trans. B., 183 (1892). - London, Harrison & and Sons, 1893, 4°, XVI, (2), 423, (1) pp., 30 Taf., Kalbsledereinband der Zeit; feines Exemplar. The Cardiometer, Automativc Counter, and the Myocardiograph! Charles Smart Roy (1854-1897) & John George Adami (1862-1926) "conducted research on the relation between the work of the… heart and physical changes produced by that work. They observed them. They wrote that the mitral valve is where strain is produced and observed it. Dogs hearts, once connected to the instruments, literally drove pistons to which recording devices where attached. Literally as well as figuratively, the heart become an engine. The cardiometer, which enclosed "the living and working heart in what is for all practical purposes a rigid fair-tight box," formed a fitting symbol for the condition of overstrain of the heart: a disease of a competitive industrial society, in which the forces of vitality have been placed in the service of running the "machinery". A disease had arisen undetected in heart: The vital center had become a pump. The discourse of stain reflected anxiety over the changing character of life. Advances in society had outstripped our physiological organization which needed to catch up" Robert Kugelmann: Stress: the nature and history of engineered grief, p.129 (Remarks of the failure of the heart from overstrain (British Med. J. 1888) "John George Adami studied medicine at Cambridge where he particularly devoted his energy to physiology. He continued his studies in Germany under Rudolf Peter Heinrich Haidenhain (1834-1897), and in 1888 became demonstrator of pathology in Cambridge under Charles Smart Roy (1854-1897). Carrying out important experimental work on cardiac overstrain, Adami and Roy considered that mechanical overstrain caused chronic thickening of the cardiac valves. In 1892, aged 30, he became the first professor in the chair of pathology that had been established by William Osler at the Mc. Gill University in Montreal, Canada. In 1919 he returned to England to become Vice Chancellor of the University of Liverpool." Whonamedit Garrison & Morton No. 835.
