Gilbertus Anglicus: Medicine of the Thirteenth Century
Medical Professor Henry E. Handerson is the author of this medical history novel. Drawing his inspiration from the medieval English physician Gilbertus Anglicanus, he offers a review of his most famous work, the Compendium of Medicine (Compendium Medicinæ).
