In 31 chapters, written by a range of experts in the field, it shows how Galen was adopted, adapted, admired, contested, and criticised across diverse intellectual environments and geographical regions, from Late Antiquity to the present day, and from Europe to North Africa, the Middle and the Far East.   The volume offers both introductory material and new analysis on the transmission and dissemination of Galen's works and ideas through translations into Latin, Syriac, Arabic, Hebrew and other languages, the impact of Galenic thought on medical practice, as well as his influence in non-medical contexts, including philosophy and alchemy.  aAll rights reserveduhttp://oapen.org/content/about-rights  aEnglish 7aMedicine2bicssc  aGalen; medical practice; philosophy; alchemy1 aBouras-Vallianatos, Petros4oth1 aZipser, Barbara4edt1 aZipser, Barbara4oth0 aDOAB Library.40uhttps://directory.doabooks.org/handle/20.500.12854/6806670zFree-to-read: DOAB: description of the publication  c92789d92789
