ISBN: 9004108238 John Murdoch was a historian of ancient Greek and medieval Latin science and philosophy. In alternate years he gave a lecture course on one or the other of these periods in pre-modern science. Each year he directed a seminar on both of these ancient and medieval fields, the topics of which vary, in addition to an advanced seminar on medieval philosophy and science, and a seminar on the establishment of medieval Latin scientific texts. / Professor Murdoch was the author of Album of Science: Antiquity and the Middle Ages (Charles Scribner's Sons, 1984). His publications in medieval science, mathematics, and philosophy include an article in The Cultural Context of Medieval Learning (D. Reidel, 1973), edited with Edith Sylla, and numerous articles on the transmission of Euclid's Elements. His particular interest was in the concepts of infinity, continuity, and limits throughout early science. [Harvard Dept. of the History of Science].

Hardcover. Zustand: Near Fine. Zustand des Schutzumschlags: Near Fine. 1st Edition. First Edition. xvi, 280 pp, 1 leaf (ads); tables. Original cloth. Near Fine, in near fine dust jacket. Cambridge History of Medicine series. 'This book describes the medical world of the early fourteenth century through a study of the extensive archival material and contemporary writings which exist for eastern Spain in the decades before the Black Death. It describes the range of medical practice which then existed - a continuum ranging from scattered academic physicians to barbers and empirics - and gives evidence for the levels and numerical growth of these various occupations in early fourteenth-century communities (although it also emphasizes that occupational distinctions were not yet sharply drawn). The newly translated Greco-Arabic medical learning was beginning to spread through this continuum of practice, and the book argues that public enthusiasm for the new learned medicine led to the 'medicalization' of certain social and legal institutions, thus preparing a role for a medical profession in this society before its physicians had shown any consciousness of collective self-interest and identity' (Cambridge University Press Web site). Contents: List of tables; Preface; List of abbreviations; Introduction; 1. The medical history of a royal family; 2. Medieval health manpower; 3. The success of medical learning; 4. A spectrum of practice; 5. The response to illness and the maintenance of health; 6. Patient-practitioner relationships; 7. Medicine's social role; Conclusion; Appendix; Bibliography; Index.

Hardback octavo, dustjacket, good plus condition (in very good dustjacket), rear flap creased jacket, edges & endpapers foxed, minor edgewear, protected by removable semiarchival plastic sleeve. 368 pp. Professors Seymour Mauskopf and Michael McVaugh examine the history of the controversial science of parapsychology, initially termed 'psychical research'. They track the evolution of this discipline from amateurish and disorganised investigations to professional experimental research. They concentrate on the period from 1920 to 1940 when psychical researchers first made a sustained attempt to gain acceptance from mainstream science. Both authors are historians of science, and they make no claim about the validity of the philosophical foundations of the field. This history is based on records from the British and American Societies for Psychical Research, and the parapsychology laboratory of J. B. Rhine at Duke University. In an afterword, J.B. and Louisa Rhine offer a parapsychological perspective.
