A stylish bilingual (Ancient Greek and English) edition of the Aphorisms by the greatest physician of antiquity is added to the collection of ancient texts / Pocket Greek Library by Aiōra Publications.

Hippocrates has been characterized as "the father of modern medicine" and is recognized as the first to establish medicine as a science, attempting to separate it from religion and to free it from metaphysical elements, superstitions, and delusions.

Disease was no longer a punishment inflicted by the gods but was linked to environmental factors, nutrition, and lifestyle.

The Aphorisms, the most famous of all Hippocratic works, is believed to have been composed by Hippocrates at a very old age, drawing from his inexhaustible experience, based on the observations, diagnoses, and treatments he applied himself, and serves both as a guide for physicians and as a guide to improving our lives on a daily basis.
