Taschenbuch. Condizione: Neu. Neuware - 'Magician and Leech: A Study in the Beginnings of Medicine With Special Reference to Ancient Egypt' is a scholarly examination of the evolution of medical practice from its earliest roots in magic and superstition to the development of empirical observation. Author Warren R. Dawson explore…s the fascinating intersection of the supernatural and the scientific in the ancient world, focusing specifically on the advanced civilizations of the Nile Valley.The work provides a detailed analysis of how the roles of the magician and the physician-or 'leech'-were fundamentally intertwined in Ancient Egypt. Through the study of medical papyri and historical records, Dawson illustrates the diagnostic and therapeutic methods used by early practitioners, ranging from incantations and amulets to the application of drugs and surgical procedures. The book highlights the significant contributions made by Egyptian medicine to the broader history of science, examining how their anatomical knowledge and pharmacological discoveries influenced later Greek and Roman practices.By bridging the gap between folklore and medicine, this study offers valuable insights into the ancient mind and the slow emergence of rational medical science. It remains an essential resource for those interested in Egyptology, the history of medicine, and the social history of the ancient world.This work has been selected by scholars as being culturally important, and is part of the knowledge base of civilization as we know it.
