The Surgery of William of Saliceto (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9781401085728)

William of Saliceto in his time was the premier surgeon of Bologna, who wrote a textbook of medicine before he published his Surgery in 1275. Although he was trained as a cleric, he is not known to have been active as a priest. His skill, wisdom and conservative practices are clearly exposed in his treatises, and made him famous as a teacher. His prime pupil was Lanfranchi of Milan, who carried William's methods into France.
