Synopsis
This book explores the ancient Greek understanding of human reproduction from the time of conception through gestation, birth, and early life, all through the fascinating study of the famous Greek physician Hippocrates, the 'Father of Western Medicine.' The book not only decodes Hippocrates' writings on embryology and obstetrics, it also places them in the broader context of Greek history, philosophy, and science. The author examines the beliefs and practices of ancient Greek physicians by reviewing their writings, and analyzing their observations about the development of the human body in utero, the length of pregnancy, and the factors that can affect the health of the mother and child. The insights provided by this book are significant because they show how the ancient Greeks laid the foundation for our modern understanding of human reproduction.
