Opis

In the Early Middle Ages, following the fall of the Western Roman Empire, standard medical knowledge was based chiefly upon surviving Greek and Roman texts, preserved in monasteries and elsewhere. Many simply placed their hopes in the church and God to heal all their sicknesses. Ideas about the origin and cure of disease were not purely secular, but were also based on a world view in which factors such as destiny, sin, and astral influences played as great a part as any physical cause. - History of Medieval Medicine, by Octavian Burgalosi is your guide for understanding the fascinating history and developments during this period. This edition also serves as an excellent reference source and study aid.
