"Originally published, in a slightly different format, as Circulation: William Harvey's revolutionary idea, in Great Britain by Chatto & Windus, 2012"--T.p. verso.
Set in the heart of late Renaissance London, William Harvey is the fascinating biography of the author of the revolutionary "circulation" theory of the movement of the blood, which would alter the history of science and general culture in a manner akin to Darwin's theory of evolution and Newton's theory of gravity.
