This book offers new insights into a largely understudied group of
Greek texts preserved in selected manuscripts from the Library at
Wellcome Collection, London. The content of these manuscripts
ranges from medicine, including theories on diagnosis and treatment
of disease, to astronomy, philosophy, and poetry. With texts dating
from the ancient era to the Byzantine and Ottoman worlds, each
manuscript provides its own unique story, opening a window onto
different social and cultural milieus. All chapters are illustrated
with black and white and colour figures, highlighting some of the
most significant codices in the collection.
