PARACELSUS AND THE MEDICAL REVOLUTION OF THE RENAISSANCE
A 500th Anniversary Celebration
"A contemporary of Nicholas Copernicus, Martin Luther, Leonardo da Vinci and a host of other figures we associate with the shattering of medieval thought and the birth of the modern world . . Paracelsus was called by some the 'Luther of Medicine' during his life time." Topical exhibits include Renaissance Humanism, Chemical Philosophy and additional readings. A great addition to NLM's History of Medicine exhibits.
