Komarov Far Eastern Branch of the USSR Academy of Sciences, the book represents a comprehensive multi-year study aimed at the scientific domestication of ginseng—a plant shrouded in ancient legend and immense medicinal value. Grushvitsky's work systematically addresses the critical biological questions (seed germination, growth patterns, vegetative propagation) necessary for its successful introduction into agricultural practice, directly supporting the state's goal of securing a reliable raw material base for the pharmaceutical industry. A copy bearing the author's autograph significantly enhances the value of this already rare and important scientific publication, connecting it directly to the pioneer of Soviet ginseng research.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eGinseng is one of the most ancient medicinal plants. For many centuries in the countries of East Asia it enjoyed the fame of an all-healing remedy and was surrounded by a mysterious aura of countless superstitions and legends. Scientific verification of the pharmacological activity of this plant was carried out only in very recent times. The merit of establishing the real medical value of ginseng belongs to a group of Far Eastern doctors and pharmacologists. The development and deepening of pharmacological and clinical studies of ginseng confirmed the conclusion that ginseng is indeed an exceptionally valuable medicinal plant deserving special attention, and revealed wide possibilities for the use of preparations from its root in medical practice. With extremely insignificant reserves of wild ginseng in the forests of the Far East, the issue of providing the medical industry with a sufficient amount of high-grade raw materials is particularly acute. In this regard, it was decided to introduce ginseng into culture. For scientific substantiation of the rational agricultural technology of this new crop for science, it is necessary to know its biological characteristics. The primary issues to be resolved are: identifying the patterns of growth and development of ginseng; studying the nature of seed propagation to accelerate seed germination and increase their germination; clarifying the possibilities of vegetative propagation to develop appropriate techniques, etc. This work is the first attempt to provide the most complete possible characterization of the biological characteristics of ginseng, based on many years of research.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Stanza Rare Books","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":43962980892714,"sku":"EB-306304767844","price":150.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0701\/6359\/5306\/files\/57_a2e0537c-fea0-4066-9d19-69d2dc26212d.jpg?v=1768159445"},{"product_id":"autograph-vishnevsky-fallots-tetrad-1969-вишневский-тетрада-фалло-монография","title":"[Signed] Vishnevsky, A.

A. Andreev. The book is filled with precise anatomical drawings and diagrams of specialized exercise routines, demonstrating the correct form for various movements and the use of auxiliary equipment like wall bars and gymnastic benches. The large format allows for clear, instructional visuals that were essential for the training of physiotherapists and medical students.\u003cbr\u003eWith a print run of 15,000 copies, this edition was a staple in Soviet hospitals, sanatoriums, and medical institutes. For historians of medicine, practitioners of physical therapy, and collectors of vintage medical literature, Vinokurov’s 1959 manual is a significant artifact of the mid-century medical landscape, representing the intersection of sports science and clinical rehabilitation.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Stanza Rare Books","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":43963148697642,"sku":"EB-306492634981","price":50.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0701\/6359\/5306\/files\/57_51882fdc-2b03-4f4a-9f14-bf2fe8ba07b7.jpg?v=1768161964"},{"product_id":"textbook-of-psychiatry-soviet-1940-гуревич-серейский-учебник-психиатрии","title":"Gurevich, M.

The authors emphasized the pathopsychological and neurological foundations of disorders, seeking to distance Soviet practice from Western psychoanalysis.\u003cbr\u003eThe volume is noted for its clinical rigor, featuring numerous case studies and illustrations of patient physiognomy and brain pathology.

His reputation as a clinician brought him to the bedside of the Tolstoy family and to Emperor Alexander III, and his lectures were translated into English, German, and French, exerting wide influence beyond Russia. This posthumous 1909 edition, prepared by his widow E. P. Zakharina under the editorial supervision of the gynecologist V. F. Snegirev, gathers twenty-two clinical lectures on diseases of the abdominal organs, nervous system, joints, kidneys, and respiratory tract, together with selected articles on mineral water therapy, presenting Zakharin's mature clinical thought in its most authoritative form.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Stanza Rare Books","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":44288764313642,"sku":null,"price":900.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0701\/6359\/5306\/files\/IMG_1376.jpg?v=1777201777"},{"product_id":"schmidt-a-and-lutje-clinical-diagnostics-and-propaedeutics-of-internal-diseases-klinicheskaya-diagnostika-i-propedevtika-vnutrennikh-bolezney-1911-in-russian","title":"Schmidt, A. and Lutje.

Martin Henry Fischer (1879–1962), professor of physiology at the University of Cincinnati and a leading American disciple of Wolfgang Ostwald, treated nephritis not as a primarily inflammatory or infectious process but as a disturbance of the colloidal water-binding capacity of the renal tissues — a radical reconception that placed kidney disease within the broader framework of the «colloidal physiology» he was then promoting against the dominant classical-pathological orthodoxy. The Russian edition is of unusual interest for the calibre of its editorial team: the translation appears under the supervision of Nikolai Konstantinovich Koltsov (1872–1940), founder of the Russian school of experimental biology and later author of the prescient hypothesis of hereditary «giant molecules» that anticipated the structure of DNA, who supplied his own additions; the volume is prefaced by Lev Aleksandrovich Tarasevich (1868–1927), the eminent microbiologist and immunologist whose name is still borne by Russia's principal institute for the standardisation of sera and vaccines. Issued by the progressive Moscow «Nauka» book-publishers on the eve of the First World War, the book stands as a document both of pre-revolutionary Russia's close engagement with frontier American biomedical thought and of the colloidal-physiological moment that briefly promised to recast the whole of pathology.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Stanza Rare Books","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":44288956596266,"sku":null,"price":140.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0701\/6359\/5306\/files\/IMG_1470.jpg?v=1777216423"}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0701\/6359\/5306\/collections\/Medicine_Health_Collection_3.png?v=1771324742","url":"https:\/\/stanzararebooks.com\/collections\/medicine-health.oembed","provider":"Stanza Rare Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
