Greek Biology and Medicine. E-book. Formato PDF ebook di Henry Osborn Taylor

Dr. Taylor's volume on Greek Biology and Medicine is the third to appear in the new Library, Our Debt to Greece and Rome. The author has drawn his sketch in such a way as to make clear the in?uence of ancient biological and medical theories and of the ancient medical practice upon our intellectual life, to-day, giving frequent allusions to that in?uence as it affected distinguished biologists and men of medicine during the intervening centuries. This is part of the larger plan Of the Library as a Whole to Show in some detail the vitality of the ancient thought and to make more articulate the significance it pos sesses for us. We all too unconsciously ac cept a heritage — scientific, intellectual, spir itual which lies at the very core of our being and is the real hope of an orderly future.
