bibliogr.
This volume presents an innovative look at early modern medicine and natural philosophy
as historically interrelated developments. The individual chapters chart this interrelation
in a variety of contexts, from the Humanists who drew on Hippocrates, Galen, and Aristotle
to answer philosophical and medical questions, to medical debates on the limits and
power of mechanism, and on to eighteenth-century controversies over medical materialism
and 'atheism.' The work presented here broadens our understanding of both philosophy
and medicine in this period by illustrating the ways these disciplines were in deep
theoretical and methodological dialogue and by demonstrating the importance of this
dialogue for understanding their history. Taken together, these papers argue that
to overlook the medical context of natural philosophy and the philosophical context
of medicine is to overlook fundamentally important aspects of these intellectual endeavors
