Context

Administrative/Biographical history:

Professor Chapman of the Department of Physiology in the University of Bristol gave these books to the Contemporary Medical Archive Centre (now Archives and Manuscripts, Wellcome Library) in two accessions, in June 1989 and May 1993. They had been stored in a room in the Department of Physiology at Bristol. After the foundation of the Veterinary School in 1949 separate capital and revenue accounts were kept for some years for the Physiology Departments in the Medical School and Veterinary School.
