Greek Medicine from the Heroic to the Hellenistic Age a Source Book
- Binding: Paperback
- Publisher: Routledge
- Publish date: 09/01/1998
Description:
The Greeks were the first to use rational systems of medicine, based upon belief in natural causation, rather than magical and religious elements, which resulted in a new conception of disease, accounting for causes and symptoms of illness. This book places ancient Greek medicine, from Homer to the Alexandrians, within its historical and intellectual context by presenting a selection of source material in translation.
Expand description
Greek Medicine provides a chronological account on the most important aspects of ancient medicine, and includes chapters on specific areas of medicine, such as gynecology, dietetics, pharmacology and surgery.
