Hippocrates: Places in Man

The wide-ranging content of Places in Man represents the entire Hippocratic Corpus - some seventy medical treatises of different dates and authorship: anatomy, physiology, pathology, medical ideology, clinical instruction, traditional love, gynaecology. Places in Man is one of the most varied and, probably, the earliest. In this new edition of the Greek text with translation and commentary, particular attention is paid to the wider background of the Corpus and other early Greek medical texts.
