Illness, Pain, and Health Care in Early Christianity

History & Biography

“Rhee has drawn on a deep and wide pool of sources, addressing a diverse range of ancient voices and engaging both classic and more recent scholarship. I have found new and challenging ideas throughout, not least in Rhee’s fresh engagement with the Greek medical and philosophical literature. This volume is a reliable introduction to a range of medical and nonmedical healing of the body and soul, from which specialists and students alike will profit.”
