1694 Hippocrates Medicine SECRETS Aphorisms Surgery Galen Genga Commentary Roma

“Walking is man’s best medicine.”

― Hippocrates

Known as the Father of Medicine, Hippocrates was a Greek physician from the 4^th-century BC. He is recognized for his lasting contributions to the medical field by establishing it as a scientific study and not just a philosophy. One of his most important books was ‘Aphorisms,’ in which Hippocrates wrote short proverbial principles on health and medicine. He discussed the secrets to long life, the importance of a healthy diet, appropriate amount of sleep, cures for pleurisy, pneumonia, melancholia, vertigo, dysentery, epilepsy, coughs, and which season each disease is most likely to occur.

This 1694 edition is notable for containing commentary by Bernardino Genga.
