Medieval Medicine

(Raintree Aug. 1, 2012)
Were there advances in medicine in Medieval Europe and elsewhere in the world?

This book examines beliefs and practices, public health and plague, to demonstrate that while learning was limited, there were important developments in the Islamic world and Europe itself.
