- Notes: first edition, second issue, with errata on last page. "This small book is one of the greatest of all medical classics and contains the results of Auenbrugger's experience with a new method of physical diagnosis--thoracic percussion... Auenbrugger describes the technique of percussion and the sounds made in various diseased conditions of the chest... Although modern methods of clinical diagnosis have to a great extent replaced manual percussion, Auenbrugger's discovery is one of the milestones in the history of medicine"--Heirs of Hippocrates 954. Garrison-Morton 2672; Norman 81 (first issue).
