Paperback. Zustand: New. Print on Demand. This book is an exploration of the historical and philosophical underpinnings of the medical practice of Specic Medication, a system of therapeutics developed by the Eclectic Medical profession in the 19th century. The author traces the intellectual roots of Specic Medication back to the writings of Hippocrates and Galen and situates its development within the broader context of the history of Western medicine. The book examines the fundamental principles of Specic Medication, such as the concept of the vital force, the use of botanical medicines, and the importance of treating the whole person rather than just the symptoms of disease. Through a thoughtful examination of original source materials, the author casts new light on this system of therapeutics and its place in the evolution of medical thought. The book sheds light on historical legacies that continue to shape the practice of medicine today.
