The opening of this publication begins with a detailed preface by Robert Willis, the editor, who explores the challenges he faced while translating Harvey’s works from Latin to English. Willis reflects on the misconceptions about Harvey’s original writings and emphasizes the need for accurate translations to convey the depth and significance of his research. He outlines his commitment to ensuring that readers receive a new and precise representation of Harvey’s ideas, particularly regarding the motion of the heart and blood. The opening portion sets the stage for a deeper exploration of Harvey’s theories, his methodology in anatomical studies, and the broader implications of his contributions to the field of medicine.
