Item description from seller

Print on Demand. This book, a revolutionary treatise on a fourteenth-century medical practice, presents a comprehensive guide to surgical techniques, anatomy, wound treatment, and more. The author draws on classical sources such as Galen, but also incorporates his own extensive experience as a surgeon. The first part of the book covers the basics of surgery, including the surgeon's role, the qualities of a good surgeon, and the importance of anatomy. The second part delves into specific surgical procedures, such as wound treatment, bone setting, and the removal of tumors. The third part covers the treatment of various diseases, including leprosy, gout, and hemorrhoids. The author's approach is practical and hands-on, with a strong emphasis on the importance of observation and experience. He provides detailed instructions on how to perform various surgical procedures, and he includes numerous case studies to illustrate his points. This book is a valuable resource for anyone interested in the history of medicine or in the practice of surgery in the Middle Ages. It provides a unique glimpse into the medical knowledge and practices of the time, and it offers a wealth of insights into the challenges and rewards of surgical practice. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format. In rare cases, an imperfection in the original, such as a blemish or missing page, may be replicated in the book.
