Description
- Ancient volumes “Institutions of practical medicine”
- Description: A work of historical and scientific merit, the Institutions of Practical Medicine by the renowned physician Giovanni Battista Borsisti constitute one of the most significant testimonies of medical teaching between the late 18th and early 19th centuries. Written in Latin and subsequently translated into Italian with fidelity and clarity, these lectures condense the author's clinical experience and theoretical acumen, serving as a bridge between traditional Hippocratic medicine and the new empirical-spiritual orientations that were gaining ground in Enlightenment Europe. The edition is enhanced by the Clinical Prolegomena by Cavaliere Val Luigi Brera, who introduces the reader to the foundations of the clinical method with a discourse of high educational quality.
