The School of Salernum; Regimen sanitatis Salernitanum

"American reproduction of Harington's sixteenth-century translation from the original Latin. One of the most popular medical poems, it was written about 1100 by the physicians of the secular School of Salerno to try and keep health among their discharged patients. The most famous translation is by Sir John Harington (1561-1612), inventor of the water-closet."--Catalog description, B & L Rootenberg
