Provides a comprehensive survey of the medical world of the
European sixteenth century and clearly explains to students what
medicine was and the impact of changes in society such as the print

on medical ideas and practices allowing them to see how the history
of medicine (and early modern Europe) was shaped over the course of
the century. The chapters in the book explore topics such as new
worlds, new drugs and new diseases, urban health, different roles
in medicine for men and women, medical communication, the recovery
of ancient medicine, religion and medicine and the patient
experience providing students with a fascinating overview of
medicine, in the broadest sense, in the sixteenth century By
including material from Germany and Spain, as well as from a large
range of unfamiliar authors, this book offers many new insights
into the way in which European medicine was studied, practised and
challenged in the age of Leonardo, Vesalius and Paracelsus.
