The Thyroid and Parathyroid Glands is a medical textbook written by Hubert Richardson and first published in 1905. The book provides a comprehensive overview of the anatomy, physiology, and pathology of the thyroid and parathyroid glands, which are two endocrine glands located in the neck.The book begins with an introduction to the history and development of knowledge about the thyroid and parathyroid glands, including their discovery and early research. It then goes on to describe the anatomy and histology of the glands, including their blood supply, nerve supply, and lymphatic drainage.The book also covers the physiology of the thyroid and parathyroid glands, including their role in regulating metabolism, growth, and development. It explains the mechanisms of hormone synthesis and release, as well as the feedback mechanisms that control hormone levels.In addition to the normal function of the glands, the book also discusses various pathologies and disorders that can affect the thyroid and parathyroid glands. These include hyperthyroidism, hypothyroidism, goiter, thyroiditis, and parathyroid disorders such as hyperparathyroidism and hypoparathyroidism.Throughout the book, Richardson provides detailed illustrations and diagrams to help readers understand the complex anatomy and physiology of the thyroid and parathyroid glands. The book is intended for medical students, physicians, and researchers who are interested in endocrinology and the role of the thyroid and parathyroid glands in human health and disease.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
