Pieter van Foreest was a pupil and colleague of Vesalius. Because of his thoughtful therapeutic approach to patient care, Pieter van Foreest is often considered the Dutch Hippocrates. He began publishing his Observationes et curationes in 1588, usually issuing three or four books at a time. Ultimately his books became a comprehensive series on disease, which ultimately included more than thirty-two volumes. The series reflected an extensive summary of sixteenth century medical knowledge, and was frequently cited by later authors. Very fine contemporary binding. - -.
