Inhaltsangabe

For the wine-lover, water aficionado, health enthusiast and anyone interested in wholesome habits, this long-hidden jewel of late Renaissance scholarship and craft will be a welcome and eye-opening reading experience. The Wonders of Water & Wine takes a 400-year-old Latin text, dusts it off and brings it to new life for our modern world in a fresh and thought-provoking way. The complete text of De Salubri Potu Dissertatio (Treatise on Healthy Drinking), by Francesco Scacchi of Fabriano, Italy, is now made available for the first time in English: the effects will certainly be “titillating,” to say the least!

Drinking — what we drink, when we drink, how we drink — is one of the most basic elements of our lives. This book invites us to reflect on our routine use of beverages. We are all different, and the proper balance in our bodies and lives, a balance that is specific to each one of us as an individual, is the key to remaining hale and hardy, to increasing our prospects for a long and fulfilling life. The ultimate purpose of this Renaissance Guide is to empower us to achieve and maintain this very balance, a balance which, with the trusted partnership of Nature herself, will make it possible for us not simply to live but to live well.
