Bag om Medicine, Health, and Healing in the Ancient Mediterranean (500 BCE–600 CE)
"This book will be a valuable primer to ancient healing as well as a primary sourcebook for students and scholars in a variety of disciplines."--Andrew Crislip, author of Thorns in the Flesh: Illness and Sanctity in Early Christianity "Ancient Mediterranean medical texts have shaped community and public health, religion, and social determinants of wellness across disciplines and into modern practices. This long-awaited sourcebook, a therapeutic bag of salutary treasures, addresses these topics with fresh translations, essays, and images. A welcome, practical tool for students, researchers, and anyone curious about the history of medical humanities and evidence-based healing."--Susan R. Holman, John R. Eckrich Chair and Professor of Religion and the Healing Arts, Valparaiso University
