Abstract
Through analysis of primary sources and examination of several medical discoveries,
it is clear that tools and approaches for diagnosis or treatment, ties between religion and
medicine, and the overall patient-doctor relationship varied greatly in different historical time
periods. Arguably, these varying perspectives were both a cause and a consequence of
increased availability and use of medical knowledge and technological advancement through
the centuries. (from Introduction).
