Galen on Food and Diet by Mark Grant
The first English translation of Galen's classic texts on health and food. Supported by a lucid introduction, notes and an extensive bibliography this elegant translation will be a must for all classicists, ancient historians and food lovers.` This is a book to be dipped into periodically with equal measure of delight, disgust and surprise inspiring us to think about changes in our tastes and dispositions about diet through the ages - Ron Iphofen, University of Wales, Bangor, Medical Sociology News, December 2001
'Anyone interested in the classics, in food, the history of medicine and health will find this book as fascinating as I did.' - Ron Iphofen, Medical Sociology News
