Medieval medicine in illuminated manuscripts

چکیده
interesting comments by earlier owners and readers. There are two appendices, one of documents, the other an up-to-date catalogue of Giovanni's manuscripts that supersedes those by Zazzeri and by Baader. Detailed attention is given to matters codicological, although information on Giovanni's scribes is not always easy to locate in the dense entries. Splendid photographs, of the library, of Giovanni's house, and of the manuscripts, make this a beautiful as well as informative catalogue of a striking exhibition.
