Welcome
Nigel Phillips Rare Books specialise in old, rare and historic books on medicine and science from all periods, but with a preference for earlier books. All aspects of these subjects are covered, including anatomy, surgery, biology, technology, engineering, and the history of ideas in general.
We attend the major book fairs, including the Californian Antiquarian Book Fair, the New York Antiquarian Book Fair, and the Olympia Book Fair, London, in June.
We publish two catalogues a year, which are sent free on request.
Visitors are welcome, but by appointment only.
