Answer 1

Answer:

William Harvey, (born April 1, 1578, Folkestone, Kent, England—died June 3, 1657, London), English physician who was the first to recognize the full circulation of the blood in the human body and to provide experiments and arguments to support this ideaHarvey attended Charles in Oxford during the Civil Wars and in Newcastle when the king was held in captivity. Harvey eventually returned to London, in 1647In Harvey’s later life, he suffered from gout, kidney stones, and insomnia. In 1651, following the publication of his final work, Exercitationes de Generatione Animalium (Exercises on the Generation of Animals), it is believed that Harvey attempted to take his own life with laudanum (an alcoholic tincture of opium). However, this attempt failed. On June 3, 1657, at the age of 79, he died of a stroke.

One of the worst setbacks Harvey experienced concerned the loss of a great deal of written work when parliamentary troops ransacked his house in Whitehall in 1642. He considered the loss of his book on the generation of insects, which contained the results of a great amount of research, to be the “greatest crucifying” that he had in his life. He also lost notes on patients, postmortem examinations, and animal dissections. Further material was lost in the Great Fire of London in 1666, which engulfed the library that Harvey helped establish at the Royal College of Physicians.
