We have had a few discussions on this list about humoral theory. They've
generally been rather limited, probably because this is a topic that is
not that familar to many modern folks. However, perhaps some of the comments
and referances in this file in the FOOD section of my files might be of
interest:
humorl-theory-msg (22K)  9/ 9/99    Concepts of medieval Humoral Theory.

If you are thinking of using Platina, perhaps these files in the FOOD-BOOKS
section might be of use:
cb-rv-Platina-msg (16K)  4/11/00    Reviews of cookbooks having Platina recipes.
Platina-bib        (7K) 11/ 7/00    A bibliography on Bartolomeo Platina

                                       Thomas Gloning.
