Originally published in 1926, An Introduction to the History of
Medicine is a compilation of reliable and essential contributions
to the subject of the history of medicine. The book looks at the
evolution of medicine from the practices in Ancient Egypt, to the
medicine of the 16th century, and examines the work of Hippocrates
and Galen. The book also examines the philosophy that began around
the practice of medicine, as well as early discussions of ethics.
It also looks at early medicine through the lens of religion,
covering the practices of medicine in Hindu, Chaldean and Islamic
religions. The book provides a broad coverage of early medicine in
ancient civilizations, focusing particularly on Ancient Greece,
Persia and Rome.
