The Hippocratic collection includes works that address various specific topics from the vast field of medical ethics and the prerequisites for the possession and practice of the "art of healing." Their content clearly indicates that the Greeks conceived medicine - as W.H.S. Jones, one of the foremost scholars of the Hippocratic collection, put it - as something that is absolutely intertwined with the highest standards of ethics and with love for humanity.
The Oath is undoubtedly the most famous of the works in this group. The others bear titles such as "On the Physician" (in reality, only the first chapter of this work has ethical content), "Law," "On Decorum," and "Instruction."
