Paperback. Condizione: New. Print on Demand. This book, published in the 16th century, is a foundational treatise on the pharmacological principles of traditional medicine. The author, a prolific writer on the subject, reviews millennia of ancient medical knowledge, examining a wide range of organic and inorganic substances and their use in treating illness. The book continues to be a valuable reference point for historians of medicine and practitioners of traditional medicine. The author opens by emphasising the critical role of sensory experience in the identification of a substance's qualities, particularly taste, and the importance of distinguishing between the effects of a substance taken in isolation and taken in combination with others. The author's primary objective is the establishment of a system of classifying substances according to their properties, in order to guide their medicinal use. He identifies four fundamental qualities, hot, cold, dry and wet, and argues that all substances can be understood in relation to these qualities. He also recognises that substances may have multiple qualities, and that the balance of qualities within the body and a substance determines its overall therapeutic effect, which he terms the 'faculty' of the substance. The author proceeds to list many substances, ranging from plant extracts, minerals, animal products and organic compounds, and gives detailed descriptions of their medicinal properties and their effects on the body. He also discusses the importance of dosage and administration, examining how the same substance can have different effects depending on whether it is taken orally or applied topically. The book is a fascinating insight into the development of pharmacology, and provides a glimpse into the practices of ancient and medieval medicine. The author's comprehensive study of the properties of substances, and their uses in relation to different conditions, is a testament to the enduring importance of traditional medical knowledge.
