jan 1, 1600 - William Harvey

Description:

William Harvey proved Galen wrong again when he discovered how blood moved around the body. Galen suggested that blood was made in the liver and burned up by the body, but Harvey proved that the Heart was a pump, pumping blood around the body, through blood vessels. Harvey also claimed to like to learn not from books, but research and dissections.
