The Prognostics and Prorrhetics of Hippocrates is a book written by the ancient Greek physician, Hippocrates. It is a collection of medical treatises that deal with the diagnosis and treatment of various diseases and conditions. The book is divided into two parts: Prognostics and Prorrhetics. The Prognostics section discusses the signs and symptoms of diseases and how to predict their outcomes. The Prorrhetics section deals with the prevention and treatment of diseases. The book is prefaced with a short account of the life of Hippocrates, who is considered the father of modern medicine. He lived in ancient Greece and is known for his contributions to the field of medicine, including the Hippocratic Oath, which is still taken by doctors today. This edition of the book was published in 1788 and is a translation from the original Greek. It includes footnotes and annotations to help readers understand the text. The Prognostics and Prorrhetics of Hippocrates is a valuable resource for anyone interested in the history of medicine or the development of medical practices.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
