About this book
The Works of William Harvey M.D presents works translated from the Latin with a life of the author by Robert Willis, combining the writings with an account of their author. The account of the circulation controversy describes advocates spreading the doctrine through teaching and writing, and says the controversy had been carried on abroad rather than at home up to that time.
The discussion of eggs distinguishes a vital principle from the capacity to produce offspring, arguing that an egg may possess the former without being prolific. The same discussion calls the female the efficient cause of the egg, while maintaining that a perfect egg requires power from the male.
