HERB - online period medicine exhibits

[Gaylin Walli]

I apologize if this is old news to some people, but it seemed
necessary to share...

The US National Library of Medicine has a website. This comes
as a suprise to me as I never knew there even was an NLM. Needless
to say, I was quite pleasantly suprised with everything at their
site, but especially two exhibits that I thought other members
of this list might be interested in.

First, is an exhibit called "PARACELSUS, Five Hundred Years:
Three American Exhibits" located at:

http://www.nlm.nih.gov/exhibition/paracelsus/paracelsus_1.html

Second, is an exhibit called "Islamic Culture and the Medical Arts"
located at:

http://www.nlm.nih.gov/exhibition/islamic_medical/islamic_01.html

Although neither are immediately applicable to the hands-on
herbalist, the ideas and discussions at these sites, as well
as the images presented therein are of use to the person
researching the prevalent thinking in medicine, pharmacy,
and health.

Enjoy,
