Hippocrates

Hippocrates was born in 460 or 459 B.C. on the small island of Cos. Hippocrates lived a long life and although the date of his death is not known with accuracy, it was probably 377 or 356 before our era.

He appeared to his contemporaries and to posterity surrounded by an aureole of glory. Aristotle called him «Hippocrates the Great «; Galen regarded him as «the wonderful inventor of all that is beautiful».

He was certainly not only the wisest and the greatest practitioner of his art, but also the most profound investigator and acute observer; he was the head of the most flourishing medical school of his age, who gathered about him many pupils and spread his teaching throughout the Greek world and even beyond.

Hippocrates freed medicine from superstition. He established the facts that disease was a natural process, that its symptoms were the reactions of the body to the disease and that the chief function of the physician was to air the natural forces of the body.

Hippocrates was not the sole author of the hundred or more books which make up the collection, but that does not detract from their value as he certainly inspired them all. Quotations from the books, with are generally acknowledged to be most truly Hippocratic, illustrate what were ideas and ideals, the methods and procedures which inspired great physician.
