Please see photos and ask questions, if any, before purchasing. Aelius Galenus or Claudius Galenus (129 - c.216 AD), often anglicized as Galen or Galen of Pergamon, was a Roman and Greek physician, surgeon, and philosopher. Considered to be one of the most accomplished of all medical researchers of antiquity, Galen influenced the development of various scientific disciplines, including anatomy, physiology, pathology, pharmacology, and neurology, as well as philosophy and logic. The essence of Galen in one volume - this was the ambition of the renowned Spanish physician and botanist, Andrés Laguna de Segovia (1499 1559). The Epitome is not a collection of excerpts, but presents shortened, coherent Latin versions of every Galenic treatise. Galen's works are followed by a short treatise on medical weights and measures, a life of Galen, notes on the translations used, and an index comprising over 10,000 entries. In the main Galen's works are arranged in four sections dedicated to introductory and anatomical writings, dietetics and diagnostics, nosology and therapy, and pharmacology respectively. Galen was essential reading for every physician & rendered his work more accessible and reader-friendly. The Epitome (parts of which first appeared in 1548) was republished at least four times, in 1553, 1571, 1604 and 1643. Most buyers were presumably practicing doctors rather than students.
