Beschreibung:
Ancient Medicine by Hippocrates is a work of great importance to the history of medicine. In it, Hippocrates presents his views on the nature of illness and disease, and how best to treat them. He advocates a holistic approach to medicine, which takes into account the whole person, not just the symptoms of their condition. This work helped to shape the future of medicine, and its influence can still be seen in modern medical practice.
The art of Medicine would not have been invented at first, nor would it have been made a subject of investigation (for there would have been no need of it), if when men are indisposed, the same food and other articles of regimen which they eat and drink when in good health were proper for them, and if no others were preferable to these. But now necessity itself made medicine to be sought out and discovered by men, since the same things when administered to the sick, which agreed with them when in good health, neither did nor do agree with them.
