  • The Red Book
    Open book. Left page shows illustration of blue serpent with open mouth on bright red background. Right page shows illustration of canoe-type boat on ocean with sea serpent in varying shades of vivid blues.
    Medical historians recognize The Red Book as one of Carl Jung’s most influential texts. In it, Jung recounts and comments upon his psychological experiments from 1913-1916 exploring his “inner processes,” originally published as Jung’s Black Books. The Red Book is a revision of these works, accompanied by Jung’s own paintings. Unpublished in his lifetime, the book was kept privately for his descendants’ viewing from 1962-2009. However, emerging legal debate over Jung’s specifications for his unpublished work led to the book’s publication in 2009. The Red Book has been published as a facsimile of his calligraphic manuscript, with extensive publication and editorial notes as well as English translations of his essays. This edition is the originally published full-color facsimile and collection from 2009.
  • Three and Fifty Instruments of Chirurgery
    Open book, showing text, and black-and-white illustrations of a crab, speculums, and other gynecological instruments.
    Ambroise Paré, a barber-surgeon for late 16th-century French kings, created this book as a surgery guide. The book is organized by ailment, with descriptions of the tools required and extensive usage or treatment recommendations. The version of Three and Fifty Instruments of Chirurgery depicted in facsimile in this book was printed after Paré’s death by the publisher H. C. London. This edition is a true facsimile, with limited notes by the facsimile creator.
