Our understanding of science, mathematics, and medicine today can
be deeply enriched by studying the historical roots of these areas
of inquiry in the ancient Near East and Mediterranean. The fields
of ancient science and mathematics have in recent years witnessed
remarkable growth. The present volume brings together contributions
from more than thirty of the most important scholars working in
these fields in the United States and Europe in honor of the
eminent historian of ancient science and medicine Heinrich von
Staden, Professor Emeritus of Classics and History of Science at
the Institute of Advanced Study and William Lampson Professor
Emeritus of Classics and Comparative Literature at Yale University.
The papers range widely from Mesopotamia to Ancient Greece and
Rome, from the first millennium B.C. to the early medieval period,
and from mathematics to philosophy, mechanics to medicine,
representing both a wide diversity of national traditions and the
cutting edge of the international scholarly community.
