Improving Health: A Challenge to European Medieval Galenism cover

Other volumes in the EAHMH Evening Lecture Series:

The main feature of EAHMH's bi-annual meetings is to create a stimulating atmosphere which enables an intensive yet informal exchange of ideas between young researchers and well established scholars. In that context it has become a tradition to invite a distinguished academic to present part of his or her own work, at their discretion, so that the essence of a long-standing professional pre-occupation with medical history might emerge in individual and exemplary ways.

A slightly different version of this paper appears, with full references, in Coping with Sickness: Perspectives on Health Care, Past and Present.
