Circulation : William Harvey's revolutionary idea / Thomas Wright. by Wright, Thomas (Thomas Edward), 1973- Vintage, 2013. Call #: 612.1 H342w Subjects Harvey, William, 1578-1657.   Physicians -- Great Britain -- Biography.   Physiology -- History.   Science -- History.   England -- Intellectual life -- 17th century.

Summary:  "Set in the beating heart of late Renaissance London, Thomas Wright's vivid and visceral biography shows how Harvey drew inspiration not only from his dissections and vivisections, but also from the world around him: from England's bustling trade networks to technological developments of the time. It features a dramatic cast of historical characters, including Francis Bacon, England's Lord Chancellor and a recalcitrant patient of Harvey's; John Donne, a poet and preacher fascinated with anatomy and the human heart; and King Charles I, Harvey's beloved patron and witness to many of his experiments."--From publisher.
