Synopsis

This book reconstructs the history of medical ideas by tracing the evolution of scientific and philosophical thought related to the human body from the Greeks until the late middle ages. By chronicling the beliefs and practices of early physicians and questioning the historical methods that underpin the accepted narrative, the author broadens our understanding of medical history's complexity. This book ultimately demonstrates that medicine is not a linear progression but a rich tapestry woven from diverse cultural, philosophical, and scientific strands.
