Show Notes
Around 460 BCE, a man was born in Ancient Greece who would change medicine forever. He invented a new scientific approach to medicine that recognised disease as a natural phenomenon, rather than the will of the gods. Or at least, that's what we're told.
Matt Lewis joins Prof. Helen King, author of Hippocrates Now and Immaculate Forms, to reveal what we really know about Hippocrates’ life, his medical philosophy and the legacy he left modern medicine. They pick apart what the sources actually tell us about him, and ask whether he really is the author of the Hippocratic Oath.
