Description
Explore the history of medicine through this scholarly work from Routledge. This book examines the search for universal laws during the Enlightenment and how they shaped modern science. It focuses on the eighteenth-century debate regarding the differences between living and inanimate matter. Starting in the 1740s, physicians at the University of Medicine of Montpellier challenged Descartes's dualist concept of the body-machine. This text provides a deep look into how these medical thinkers contested established views to shape the development of medical thought. It is an essential read for those studying the history of European medicine and the scientific shifts of the Enlightenment era.
