This volume of studies seeks an anthropological view of medicine
and the healing arts as they were situated within the lives of
medieval people. Miracle cures and charms as well as drugs and
surgery fall within the scope of the authors represented here, as
does advice about diet and regimen. As well, the volume looks at
wellness and illness in broad contexts, avoiding the tendency of
modern medicine to focus on the isolation and definition of
pathological states.
