First Editions, offprint issues. Rothberger made important contributions to cardiology and electrocardiography, performing (with Eppinger) the first experimental study of the electrocardiographic changes in bundle branch block (see Garrison-Morton 848) and independently discovering (with Winterberg) the causal link between auricular fibrillation and perpetual arrhythmia (see Garrison-Morton 2831). During the 1920s Rothberger published annual review articles summarizing current research and publications on the heart and circulation (Blutkreislauf) in the Jahresbericht über die gesamte Physiologie und experimentelle Pharmakologie (continued after 1927 by the Jahresbericht Physiologie und experimentelle Pharmakologie). We are offering Rothberger's copies of four of these reviews, which he had bound together with his handwritten and typewritten indexes to them. The reviews cover such topics as cardiac physiology, EKG, arrhythmia, cardiac innervations, cardiac hormones and cardiac pathology.
