New edition of the first two doctrines of De anathomia, the opening treatise of Guy's Inventarium sive Chirurgia magna, a 14th-century tract on surgery, with English translation, based on six Gaelic manuscripts from the 16th and 17th centuries.
A short intruduction, sparse notes and a glossary of medical terms from which many of these terms are absent provide a somewhat sketchy background. The most important references are provided. The translation/ edition is welcome nonetheless and it is to be hoped it will be revised soon. ( )
