How much has medicine changed in the last 800 years? In principle, these tenants are just as fresh, appropriate and illuminating as they were during the days of the great Jewish Physician Maimonides.

Then in the 16th Century the great Paracelsus offered his own time-tested views.
The practice of medicine is a work of art. And because it is a work of art it must prove its master. But how much each part is to be judged can be seen only from the work as a whole. It is the art that imparts its wisdom to the work. For through this wisdom the art creates the work.
