Augustus Volney Waller (www.whonamedit.com) (1444 words)
Augustus Volney Waller, the son of William Waller, was raised in the south of France, in Nice, until his father’s death in 1830.
Augustus was 14 year old when he returned to school in England, living with Dr. Lacon Lambe and then with William Lambe (1765-1847), and eccentric vegetarian who believed that almost all diseases were caused by animal diet and the poor water in London.
His son Augustus Desiré Waller (1856-1922) was also a distinguished physiologist and in 1887 demonstrated an electric current in the human heart by placing electrode on the surface of the body, the forerunner of the electrocardiogram.
