Omschrijving

The Genuine Works of Hippocrates Vol. 1 (of 2) is a foundational collection of medical writings attributed to Hippocrates, often regarded as the Father of Medicine. This volume, translated from the original Greek by Francis Adams, presents a comprehensive selection of treatises that have shaped the course of Western medicine for centuries. The works included cover a wide range of topics, from the ethical principles guiding medical practice to detailed observations on diseases, treatments, and the natural processes of the human body. Within this first volume, readers will find seminal texts such as On Ancient Medicine, Aphorisms, Prognostics, and On Airs, Waters, and Places, among others. These treatises reveal Hippocrates' commitment to careful clinical observation, logical reasoning, and the importance of environmental and lifestyle factors in health and disease. The writings emphasize the value of prognosis, the significance of diet and regimen, and the necessity of a compassionate, ethical approach to patient care. Adams' translation is renowned for its clarity and fidelity to the original texts, making these ancient works accessible to modern readers while preserving their historical and scientific significance. The volume is enriched with detailed notes and commentary, providing context and explanations that illuminate the medical theories and practices of classical Greece. The Genuine Works of Hippocrates Vol. 1 is an essential resource for students, scholars, and anyone interested in the origins of medical science. It offers a fascinating glimpse into the early development of clinical medicine, the enduring legacy of Hippocratic thought, and the timeless quest to understand and heal the human body.
